Rialto Theatre

The earliest mention of the Rialto I’ve been able to find in the trade journals is from the October 6, 1923 issue of Exhibitors Herald. This was the first of more than a dozen capsule movie reviews submitted to that volume of the magazine by Rialto managers Pace & Bouma. Jack Bouma was around long enough to open the new Rialto in 1939, but I have no idea what became of Pace. Perhaps the Bouma was just too much for him.
