The Avalon architect was F & Y Building Service and opened 1940 costing just $27,000 to build. It closed in 1970 following what is very likely the end of a 30-year lease. Indian Red was the color of choice with the newly-created 1.5-width love seats throughout the auditorium by International Seats, primary color of the patterned carpeting, wall treatments with squares in Indian Red and Gold, and draperies all in Indian Red. First film was the box office dud, “The Blue Bird” with Shirley Temple on the Brenkert projectors. But patrons were always cool as true air conditioning existed from opening day to closing.
