The Juno Theatre opened on January 25, 1948 with Wayne Morris in “Deep Valley” along with a newsreel and a cartoon, and was first owned by Carl F. Neitzel.
Boxoffice, Sept. 10, 1955: “The Juno Theatre here has been sold by Mrs. Ethel Neitzel to Mr. and Mrs. John Hellstrom of Wittenberg, Wis. The theatre has 365 seats.”
Vacant and is currently listed for sale.
The trade journals give contradictory information about the theater in Juneau. The November 15, 1947, issue of Motion Picture Herald ran this brief item saying “Carl Neitzel is planning one in Juneau, Wis., which has no theatre.”
However the December 2, 1950, issue of Boxoffice has a short article about the remodeling of the Juno, which says this: “Mr. and Mrs. Carl Neitzel, owners of the house for ten years, recently celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary.”
I suppose it could be that the Juno was a replacement for an earlier theater in Juneau that the Neitzel’s owned.
