From the July 7, 1956 Motion Picture Herald:
Gibralter Enterprises has closed the Rex, Casper, Wyo., the Motorena drive-in, Greeley, Colo., and has placed the Grove, Gering, Neb., on one change a week – weekends.
This reopened as the Rex theatre on November 3rd, 1925. Grand opening ad in the photo section.
1949 Photo added courtesy of the AmeriCar The Beautiful Facebook page. Note the TAXI sign next door that is in the other photo as well. Not the best shot, but it is the Rex.
This theater started, as the Iris (not to be confused with the current Iris 8 Theater on Yellowstone).
The America Theater is at 119 S. Center St, across the street where 120 is, is one big empty parking lot, so this is demolished.
