RKO Orpheum Theatre - “Black Widow”

Here’s a photograph of the RKO at the showing of “Black Widow” on November 29, 1954. The movie starred Ginger Rogers, Van Heflin, Gene Tierney and George Raft. The double feature also included “Vigilante Terror” from 1953.

Left of the theatre was Lewis Cleaners, which was celebrating its First Anniversary at that location. To the right of the theatre was Leo Kautz' “Sportsman’s Grille.”
