The May 22, 1948 issue of Boxoffice said that the Pix Theatre in Minneapolis, having returned to the name Newsreel a month previously, had once again restored the name Pix. The house was still under lease to Metropolitan Theatres, and showing double-feature revivals.

Nice night time marquee shot. This was recently home to Teener’s costume shop. The building is now vacant and for sale. It has great terra cotta on that narrow little facade.
