The Rialto Theatre opened at the height of the oil boom in Seminole on October 15, 1927 with the films, “Stepping Along” and “Senor Daredevil.” The Rialto closed on June 25, 1949 with “Range Renegades.” The dormant theater was sold to Video Independent Theaters on December 1, 1949 along with the town’s other theaters. VIT sold the Main Street building to the telephone provider who converted the building as their home office.
Located in the 300 block of N. Main, the decorative tile roof and marquee have been removed, but the white and powder blue structure (photo left) still looks a lot like it did in the 1940s.
