Beginning in the 1970s, the place became an adult movie theater. As part of the outside display, there was a giant neon sign of a naked woman banging on a bass drum that said “Apollo” on it (it actually portrayed movement). I believe it can be seen briefly at the beginning of the 1981 Brian Depalma and John Travolta film “Blow Out”.
