OK, I will leave the Kitty Kat photos in the gallery.
there are additional ones in the below link, among other Pussycat photos in addition to New Yrok.
It appears there is not separate CT page for the Kitty Kat Theatre next to the Pussycat yet.
The Overview states it was around the corner on 49th Street, but all the photos show it as next door. Did it have a second entrance on Broadway next to the Pussycat? Either way, there is no page for it.
I’m assuming it was at 1599 Broadway based on a photo I just added.
If you scroll right from this Facebook photo, there are 500+ various renovation photos on the Waukegan Revsisted page.
Pipe organ etc.

Danny Mosley, right, and David Booth, a layman, at the Warner Park Drive-In Theater at Highway 100 and Vaughn’s Gap Road in Nashville, Tennessee. Motorists have been invited to “come as you are.” Robert Johnson / The Tennessean
Has Warners and Wiltern signage, which would have been 2 years after Pacific Theatre’s chain took it over per the Overview.
So they or Franklin Life must have re-exposed the Warners marquee signage during exterior changes.

I’ve come across an early `50s photo of what appears to be a Stanford Theatre on Congress near 2nd Street, but can find no record of it anywhere.
Looks to be a small marquee beneath a vertical sign.
Anyone hear of it?
The September 2018 street view shows “Building is Available Call 724-337-3525” on posters flanking the entrance, with painted theatre curtains on the doors featuring an outer space theme.

OK. I will delete the above post, and re-add the 3 I had removed, and identify them as 42nd Stret entrance.
