This opened on October 6th, 1923 as “The Jewel-Box Home of the Photoplay”. Grand opening ad in the photo section for this theatre.
By the 1925 Trenton City Directory, the theatre was listed as the Stacy at 142 E. State (note that the “other” Princess in Trenton is also listed in this directory, however without an address).
Listed as the Princess Theatre at 142 E. State on page 126 of the 1917 Trenton City Directory under “Moving Pictures”.
The Mayfair and Stacy pretty much faced each other on State Street. The Stacy suffered a fire and was razed in the late fifties. A fastfood restaurant, Ginos ( now closed), occupies the lot.
Listed in the 1951 FDY as an art theater, one of only 2 in NJ.
This theater was originally designed for motion pictures.
It is not listed in the 1920 Trenton City directory.
