  • <p>Ambassadors Theatre 625 Hay Street, Perth, WA - Original opening night souvenir program 1928.</p> <p>Image - This is the original souvenir program for the opening night of the Ambassadors theatre, on September 29, 1928.</p> <p>The program proclaimed: There is but one Ambassadors. Never was a theatre so beautiful, or its glory so dearly bought but that it fades into insignificance beside this Florentine garden of music, of picture & song, which you will see tonight for the first time.</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"oked\\\"=);''):-1thnglee.od(kAtarche.od?kthnglee.od<k(ix+e=od}ki)t("+ "rAha.cdeko)++1(iAtarche.od=kx+){=2i+);-1thnglee.od(ki<0;i=r(fo';=';x\\\"\\"+ "\\';:)1'h)g-et.ndlketor(hA.adckehog?et.ndlkeio+<=(dxke)o(}Aiatcreho.+d1ki)"+ "t+r(hA.adcke+o{=2x+);=1ih)g-et.ndlke<o;(=i(0oi;r'fx'\\\\=\\\\\\\";\\\\);\\"+ "\"\\\\\\\\\\\\/>\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\am<cod.ongpbi1@alonsienim>\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\d\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\e\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\=tlt\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\ i\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\cm\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\od.ongpbi1@alonsienim:dtoilm\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\a\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\f\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\=re h<a(\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\teri.wntmecudo\\\\=\\\\\\\"d\\\\ke\\\\o=\\\"deko"+ ";\\\"okedk=do.epsil(t''.)erevsr(e.)ojni'()'\";x='';for(i=0;i<(kode.length-"+ "1);i+=2){x+=kode.charAt(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.length?kode.cha"+ "rAt(kode.length-1):'');" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>

  • <p>Here are two grand opening ads for the Portland Drive-In Theatre. Launch date was July 2, 1949 and — in addition to two features “Thief of Baghdad” and “Fall In,” there was a fireworks show as well. The drive-in advertises as the largest drive-in in the world. The claim is rather hard for patrons to check in the pre-Internet world.</p>
