Yes, also when the logan showed movies they used the old type carbon burning tip to show the movies via the old projectors. the film use to come in big metal boxes and taken from theatre to theatre. Now the didgital film is out the cameras will have to be updated. in carlisle we have one drive in opened with the older type of projector carbon. it is harder to get those movies most movies r didgital the drive in has taken up a collection from the audience per in the snack bar area if they do not get enough money to replace those old fashioned cameras they would have to close and we do not want that to happen. the donations have been coming in nicely to help with getting the new projectors. Now this is carlisle, pa.

So many ex loganites will invade that thetre when it opens again. they do not care about the neighborhood they just want to see old memories re lived. i remember Harry, was the doorman, barney cohen was the mgr at the time, they had a asst mgr but i forget his name. we had a deal worked out the ushers and ticket takers from the logan could come to the rockland and broad theatre and get in for free and we could go to the logan and get in free. most of my young life was spent in those three movies and i never paid. my dad was a handyman for the rockland and broad repairing things, done it cheaper than a registered plumber and the mgrs really appreciated it. He also worked at the Ellis corp other theatres doing repair work.. let me and others know when the theatre opens do not care what the ticket costs. we loganites want to come in droves to get a little bit of history and memories back. thanks for letting us know.
