I’ve found the New Theatre in Hope mentioned in Boxoffice as early as April 17, 1937. The operator was R.V. McGinnis, who later also operated a house called the New Theatre in Nashville, Tennessee.
From May 2013 a photo of the New Theatre building taken May 2013.
Opened Christmas Day 1936 with “Don’t Gamble With Love.”
