It appears that blackout covers were applied to the marquee because of wartime restrictions again unnecessary nighttime lights.

That date for the picture is incorrect. “The Furies” was released in 1950. The automobiles in the picture date from the late 1940s and early 50s.

Trolleyguy commented about Scranton Art Haus on Mar 8, 2019 at 6:41 am

That policy stated above of not allowing anyone into the theatre under the age of 17 seems incorrect. Several of the movies listed on the website are family films and Fandango is selling children’s tickets for all the movies. Maybe unescorted minors under 17 at night?
