Possibly located on Main Street. The Lyric Theatre opened as early as 1911, and was renamed the Columbus Theatre on July 5, 1936.
In its final couple of years in operation after new management took over in May 1954, films were screened on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays instead of the normal seven-days-a-week. The Columbus Theatre closed in 1956.

An item datelined Columbus Junction in The Show World of July 3, 1909, said that “A. Westcott, Marshalltown, and G. G. Peck will open a picture theater here.” I’ve been unable to connect this project specifically to the Lyric, but it’s possible that it was the same house.
