The tag on this theatre says it was demolished, yet a Google search had a November 2001 photo of this address. A “Letter to the Editor” of a 1939 issue of LIFE Magazine caught my eye. Roy T. Hill, the manager of the 246 seat theatre, wrote a small bit regarding Warner Bros selecting his STATE THEATRE and State Center (population 1,012) for the “world’s premiere” of their film “Pride of the Bluegrass”.
