After the closure of the Lux Theatre in LA and the Granada Theatre in LA, Harold Wenzler operated the Oaks Theatre in Pasadena, and I worked for him as relief projectionist. Like Mr. Wenzler’s other venues, the Oaks catered to a down-scale clientele, but he insisted upon the best in showmanship.

While I cannot say for sure, I believe the Oaks was built by Warners as an early talkie house.
