I remember going to a Saturday matinee at this theatre ca. 1952 for 12 cents. Haddonfield was the largest town in the area but had the smallest theatre, a tiny cheese box. My parents didn’t want me to go to this theatre because they disapproved of its reportedly Jim Crow policy, with African-Americans only allowed to sit in a tiny balcony. I don’t know if that was actually true. If so, the balcony must have been small since the theatre itself was tiny.
Here is a 1946 photo:
