I don’t remember this one. I wonder how long the Franks operated it.

Harry Colmer converted this building into a full time movie theatre in the late 1920s. This was the third of three theatres in his chain (along with the Colonial in Beach Haven and the Colony in Brant Beach). Colmer died in 1956 and his family operated all three theatres until 1964 when they sold to Frank Theatres.
