The Liberty Theatre opened its doors by Joseph L. Delisi and his company on February 7, 1924 with Jackie Coogan in “My Boy” alongside an unnamed two-reel comedy.
Right after the Liberty’s closure in the mid-1960s, the Liberty’s original Super Simplex 35mm projector with RCA Photophone stamp was sold to Hollywood illustrator A.L. Henry, and later displayed at the Jimmy Stewart Museum in Indiana, PA.
The theater building is in excellent condition, with the space used by a graphics business.

Theatre was actually built in 1923 but didn’t get the “Warner Bros. Classics of the Screen” contract until February 1924.
The theatre closed in May 1968.
I have uploaded current pictures of the full exterior and also of the entrance.
Actually, construction of the theater started in 1923, but its grand opening advertisement says February 7, 1924 according to the Saltsburg Press. Grand opening ad posted.
