Actually, the Palace Theatre was built in 1921, and opened on October 10 of that same year.
The Palace is still showing movies if anyone is interested in visiting!

The Palace Theatre opened about the same time the building was built in 1922 at 926 West Main in Duncan. The Paul Hotel is seen in the 1940 picture posted. The Palace is still showing shows as of this post.
Anyone have any pictures or info on the hotel that was above the theatre?

On these pages can be seen recent color photos of the Palace Twin.
A very nice example of a typical small town theatre.

A 1987 photo of the Palace Twin after someone decided to cover up a nice red brick building with some ugly paneling.
Original design of the Palace Theatre was French themed. When a new marquee replaced the old bronze and glass canopy, the look was updated to 1940s Moderne. Gleeming enamaled paneling sheathed the facade in 1963, bringing about a fresh new look.
Look at 1936, 1941, & 1963 photos by typing in word “palace”,
