I added a photo, which needs to be straightened. Wish I’d been able to get that red car out of the frame.

The March 21, 1908 edition of The Billboard has a list of Electric Theatres and Nickelodeons. The address given for the Dreamland Theatre is 82 Main Street, Bradford, PA.

If we can confirm the address, I have pictures of both the 4 story building at 78 (Auerheim Building) and the building at 80-82.

Dreamland was opened by, but not necessarily on, February 5, 1908, and was mentioned in the March 28 issue of Moving Picture World that year.

80-82 is a 3 story building built in 1902. The maps call it the Baker Building. If there was a theater here, it was gone by 1911. The 1905 map shows a jewelry store here. The 1911 map shows that space as a vacant store. F.C. French was the architect. The ground floor has been vacant for a few years.
