DavidZornig commented about Roxy Theatre on Aug 9, 2021 at 4:09 pm

BillJunior, Majestic Theatre has already been added to the Roxy’s “Previous Names” and is recognized as such in the Overview. CT usually uses the last/most current names for reference, but not always. So anything pertinent to the Majestic should be in the comments section here, and not submitted as a new theatre.

For longer/verbose comments, it is sometime advisable to split them up into separate paragraphs, or even separate comments, so whatever algorithms CT is using does not flag them as spam.

As far as adding new theatres to CT, I usually cross reference them with Cinematour first to make sure that they are not already added to CT but under a different name. If they then indeed prove to be missing, you add new theatres by using the “Submit your favorite” box in the lower right hand corner of the Cinema Treasures Home page. Just follow the prompts after you enter the given theatre name. State, address, previous names, description etc. will be in the pages that follow. Your initial description often is what appears as the initila Overview. After submitted, CT Admins will cross reference what was added with the records they have, and after approved it will appear under “Newest theaters” in the upper right hand corner of the Cinema Treasures Home page. After a new theatre has it’s own page, you can then add photos and additional comments.

Update: July 1940. “Brother Orchid” at the Roosevelt. The Baer vs. Galento fight took place 07/02/40. So that is likely the film on the bottom of the marquee

DavidZornig commented about Oregon Theatre on Jul 19, 2021 at 11:10 am

Google Street View mistakenly goes to 5th Street, so one has to scroll around to find 4th Street and the former theatre building. None of the available edit options allow that correction to be made.
