First movie house in Andover was the Wonderland, which opened in 1909. It was located around the corner from the Colonial, next to the Musgrove building at the beginning of Elm street. I think it is now Indria Hair Salon
If I remember correctly, it was located in the town center on Essex St behind the Memorial Library and today the site is occupied by an expansion in the rear of the library.
Hmm, I didn’t see this entry and added this theater again. I have it operational as late as 1967. I remember seeing the movie “Is Paris Burning?” there as a kid.
Here is a 1914 photo:
