I went regularly to The Techwood during WW II and less frequently in the 50s. I lived with my family in an apartment at 663 W. Peachtree St., about 3 blocks northeast of The Techwood. Saturday was my favorite day to attend because there were always double features. Cowboy and war movies, with an occasional monster or comedy was the usual fare. It cost .09 cents and then 0.12 cents after the war for under 12 kids. Most were under 12 no matter their size. The front row was our favorite seats and the only bad thing was, like all neighborhood theaters of the time, you couldn’t go barefoot comfortably because the floor was always very sticky. walterb, atlanta
