I walked by 810 S. Main the other day. There is a small nondescript building occupying the site, with a few retail businesses on the ground floor. No comparison.

The Town Hall Theater in Quincy, CA would immediately follow this entry. I’m not sure where Quincy is, but it doesn’t look too warm. The photos are from the UC Davis collection:

I think that this picture represents a different theater in Marysville called the Lyric. The neighboring businesses do not resemble the stores surrounding the Tower.

Before television, movies were the primary source of entertainment for most people, along with radio. I believe that most theaters in the 1930s and 40s changed their film once a week. The accompanying newsreels were also the only way to see news live, or sort of live. Subsequently, even the smallest town had at least one movie theater.

From the Pomona Public Library. I believe this is the theater on Third and not the one that was on North Garey, which was the Fox Sunkist. I could be wrong.
