I visited the Texas Theater in August 2005 and was able to tour the interior which is under renovation. The upper balcony seats have been removed, the first level seats including the seat Lee Harvey Oswald was captured in are still in place. The whole place is rather dusty and appears to have been vacant for quite some time.
The exterior sign (in place during the 60’s) is in bad shape. Hopefully, the restoration will proceed.
When were those sign photos taken?
I think the seat is to indicate the location of LHO when captured. It is obvious the material is different from the adjacent seats.
Here are some photos from my August 2005 visit to the Texas Theater.

Really a great place. Hope they get the restoration right.
