On the September 16, 1985 episode of late night with David Letterman, Sammy Davis Junior recounted that his first ever paying job was winning a talent contest at the Stanley theater in Philadelphia. He was 3 ½ years old.

Just drove past this venue, and it is, unfortunately, closed, and up for sale. It’s on a clean street with lots of traffic driving past it. It looks clean and well preserved. I hope they find a buyer. For sale signs in the poster boxes look like movie posters. Great idea!
