Film Daily of August 28, 1927 said that “Geo. Kilgen & Son, Inc., pipe organ Builders of St. Louis, have shipped a two manual organ to the Rex, Albion, Nebraska, which is now being installed.”
The Rex was one of two movie theaters listed at Albion in the 1914-1915 American Motion Picture Directory. The other theater was called the Lyric.
No website. Movie listings on Facebook page. Phone#: 402-395-3394 Function: Movies-second run. Only open on weekends.
Out of curiosity was this theatre known as the Rex Theatre from the mid-1920’s through the 1980’s. There is a Rex Theatre listed for the same address as the Gateway through those years.
Here is an article concerning the restoration efforts in 2002:
