The State Theatre closed at the end of a 20-year lease on April 24, 1953. Its seats were removed in 1956. Vandals broke in and did damage in 1957 to the interior and turned on the exterior marquee lights. Surprisingly, after four years, the marquee lit up. An exploitation double feature of “Cocaine” and “Secrets of a Model” was the final booking.
