The auditorium was gutted by the bus company last summer. I had tried several times to get in contact with them and they weren’t responding to my messages, I guess I know why now.
1934 program:

The current occupants, Valley Transportation are always very friendly, when I have asked to see the interior. It is used as a garage, but a lot of the ceiling, sides and entrance still have elements of the old theater.
My father had told me how when he was a kid back in the 1930’s he had taken a long trolly ride to the State just to see the Laurel & Hardy short Busy Bodies.
Listed in the 1951 FDY with 981 seats but at 528 Valley Road.
