I remember getting into the movie theatre in the “twelve and under” category for 75 cents. I am guessing that those “75 cents days” are over. Not having grown up in Stuttgart, I was never in the Majestic Theatre, but I imagine this photo will bring back some memories for a lot of people. Apparently, the theatre was mostly demolished sometime in the 80s. Parts of the old Majestic were salvaged for other buildings around Stuttgart. It was located on the south side of 4th Street, west of Main. I am told by a highly reliable source that the marquee in this photo is advertising the movie, “Man Who Never Was,” starring Clifton Webb, approximating the date of this photo as 1956.

The Majestic was part of the Malco chain in the early sixties.
