Interesting stuff indeed…here’s one more for you…The York in the “Big H” was the first theatre I got to by bicycle. Actually, my older brother pedaled, I just hung on to the banana seat/sissy bar (remember those?). I was only about 7 or 8 and we saw “Fat City” with Jeff Bridges and Stacy Keach. I checked and apparently this was in 1972. I think I went to see one other feature there but my recollection of the York back then was that it was still in good shape and that the interior had the classic theatre faces for comedy and trajedy and the walls.

In ‘80 I saw Chariots of Fire at Morton and I remember the admission was about the same as the bargain theatre in Northport – about $1
