The TYLER THEATER is (was??) a very large theater. The marquee and main entance were on the east side of the building. Here is my photo its vertical sign that was located on the northeast corner of the building. A small part of the LIBERTY can be seen in the lower left of the photo.

My 1986 photo of the PALACE sign and some unique and colorful tile work and artistic detail. They surely do not make them like this anymore!

Hey Danny. I had read that the land had been purchased for drilling.
Do you know if they have torn anything down? Are the signs and screens still standing?

Thanks!

Don Lewis commented about Liberty Theatre on Jan 11, 2007 at 10:52 am

Hello Patsy. The Liberty is one of the more difficult theaters I have ever photgraphed and my photo does not do it justice. It is about 2 ½-3 stories high sitting on a narrow two lane street. The only evidence of a marquee seems to be the dome shaped crack under the LIBERTY lettering. I have few more pictures that I will try to locate and post.

Have you checked thier website out? http://www.jeromelibertytheater.com/

At the time of his death Roy Starling owned the WHITE THEATER in Fort Worth, which later became the BERRY. He had sold the WINGS and TEXAN theaters in Grand Prairie to buy the White.
