The Nu Vue Theater was opened June 15, 1950.
In 1986 the closed Nu Vue Theater was housed in a stand alone corner tan brick building. Attached to the top left front of the theater in individual green block letters was "N Vue". Under the sign were the remnants of a marquee and some windows. A boarded up entrance was sheltered by an overhang. Also remaining were a couple of outside movie poster frames.

I wonder if it used to be NU VUE?
“When I was approached to buy it, he knew I would preserve it as a movie theater.” Butch Rigby

How does that get corrected?
“And now you know, The Rest of the Story.” Paul Harvey
Usually the editors notice the changes and do the corrections at some later point. Don might want to comment as he added the theater.
From 1986 a photo of the Nu Vue Theater in Abernathy.

The retired AKC (NAC)commander’s comments seem irrelevant. Who is Butch Rigby & what is the rest of the story?
Thankfully CT does a great job of separating hearsay from the facts.
Would love to see anything that indicates a name change is in order & then let’s do it.
A picture is worth more than a thousand words.
