I remember both the Shaw and Leaf theater’s as a child in the 50’s I would be dropped off every Saturday at the Shaw theater with 25 cents in my hand . Admission was 9 cents , For that you got to see 2 grade B westerns Roy Rogers , Gene Au try . Hopalong cassidy , Johnny Mack Brown and many others .2 serials and at least 3 cartoons . candy was 5 cents . popcorn was 5 cents and of course they had penny candy so the got the entire 25 cents ! We would always watch everything 2 times so it was the cheapest way to babysit kids for about 5 hours !
