Style is most definitely not art moderne. It’s Spanish colonial, with a fake bell tower and everything. It seems to be falling into disrepair (the neighborhood is pretty sketchy).
I think the Times is a small regional chain. I seem to recall some others from my roadtrip. The lower story appears to be covered in black plywood, and the marquee looks like it was ruined during the ‘60s or '70s.
Just to make finding it easier, the town is West Plains. I have some pictures which I’ll gladly submit when the feature comes back online. The sign is intact, the marquee has no neon, but perhaps never did. The upper story is painted in a very garish rainbow scheme.
