Thanks, Lost Memory, for the photo! I haven’t seen this theatre since the 50s and I even sort-of remember my family shopping at that Acme Market you can see down the street on the right. Do you have any idea when the photo was taken? The marquee’s blank, so I guess it was after the theatre closed, but the cars seem not of that time period.
Again, thanks for taking the time & effort to post the photo – I just emailed a copy of it to my older sister, who ‘baby-sat’ me through many a Saturday matinee double feature there!

My family lived across the street from this theatre when I was very young (too young to cross the street and get a good look at the posters!) One-Sheets were posted in a giant easel ouside the theatre and I still remember being scard to death by the posters from William Castle’s Macabre , I Was a Teenage Frankenstein, and Invasion of the Saucer-Men!
I saw my first movie there – Disney’s Pinocchio – but because I spent all my time watching a teenage couple “making out” instead of watching the film, my family was asked to leave! I have great memories of Saturday double-features there…and eventually saw all of Pinocchio, too!
