graepers commented about Egyptian Theater on Aug 2, 2014 at 10:45 pm

If anyone is interested in the history of the Egyptian Theater, I have a large album of pictures and articles left to me by my father, William Graeper, who, along with his father (my Grandfather) also William Graeper, owned the Egyptian Theater until it was sold to New Song Church. I also have a large volume of numerically sequenced Egyptian Theater movie tickets and other memorabilia. Steve Stone has viewed all of the items I have and says I have a real treasure of memories.

Architecturally, the Egyptian Theater set new standards for concrete construction in 1924 and was constructed in record time. The auditorium is all concrete, including the ceiling, which was an engineering wonder for the time.

Please contact me, Steve Graeper at for more information.
