Would be nice to research this re: the Wurlitzer. I know an organ restorer and will ask him. In the meantime, will contact the Punxsutawney Historical Society.
I am having an exhibit to honor this ‘grand’ old lady of the art deco era June 30-August 6 in Westfield NY. Collecting and finding artifacts continues to be a ‘Labor of Love’. A reception will be held June 30 from 6-8 with light refreshments at the Lake Shore Center for the Arts.

Any interior photos?
A true atmospheric theatre.
My organ source has told me at the time of the theatre demise the organ was sold.

And to think it had a Wurlitzer is amazing. Does anyone know what happened to it???
For Punxy to have lost its theatre(s) is a crime.
It seems the original seats are gone. Sad to see. And has the auditorium been split into 2 theatres?
The Grand Theatre in Westfield NY had it.
And the Princess Theatre should be restored and returned to Bloomington.
Twinning this atmospheric was a crime!
Sad
Is the space still an antique and collectible storefront? It should return to being a theatre,imho.
So the Strand as been triplexed? There goes plans to see this theatre.
Need to see interior photos of this beautiful art deco cinema treasure! A shame it is now gone to the ages as a theatre is a town’s anchor!
noicelessecho: please provide photos ..
Think this charming cinema is now a pizza parlor. Shame.
What a Cinema Treasure charmer!
If anyone knows the current update re: this theatre, please post.
Many theatres through the years offered what was advertised as Bank Night. Can anyone tell me its history/origin in re: to theatres?
The Grand was my hometown theatre and I miss it. Wish I could post the exhibit poster for Remembering the Grand.
Does anyone recall the first names of the Blatt Brothers?
This theatre was demolished in April 1993.
