Photo of an unidentified group fo men holding a “Greater Monogram Pictures” 1933-1934 banner. Monogram Pictures was a successful movie production company founded in the 1930s. It eventually became Allied Pictures and ceased operation around 1974.

The man in the front row holding the right corner of the banner could possibly be Roy Starling.

With thanks to Jeannette for the photo.

Here is a colorful post card rendition of the Loews/United Artist theater on 4th Avenue in Louisville. Mickey Rooney in “Boys Town” appears to be the evening movie feature.

Do not mind the questions at all. It is just that it never occured to me to keep more accurate records of all the theaters that I have photographed over the years.
