The building was constructed in 1903-1906 as a store. 400-seat Peerless Theatre was opened by 1927. It was still open in 1957.

Originally owned and operated by Richard Sterling, a cotton buyer for Erwin Mills.
Uploaded photos of a roll of tickets from the theatre and an ad which appeared in the January 12, 1953 The Daily Record from Dunn, NC>
The NRHP registration form for the Erwin Commercial Historic District says that the building partly occupied by the Peerless Theatre was built in 1903-1906 for the Erwin Mills and housed their company store, among other things. It says that the Peerless occupied the eastern portion of the building from very early in its history, but I’ve found no references to it in early trade publications.
@Joe Vogel the NRHP registration is how I found the address but I couldn’t find much more information except my ticket stub.
