I think that the theatre was owned by the Enea family, who also owned a dairy in Antioch where I grew up. I remember attending that theatre when US Steel, which had a plant in Pittsburg, rented it to show a movie on industrial safety to its employees and their families. I remember the theatre being in good condition, with a lot or ornate gilded decoration in the interior. There were two more theatres in Pittsburg, the California down on Railroad Avenue and the Vogue, out near the SP train station. In Antioch, there were three, the Stamm, the El Campanile and the Casino. The Casino did a turn as a flea market in the 70s; the El Campanile is open
again and being restored. The new management seems interested and competent.
