I'm wondering if this became the Dix Theatre when I was little. We used to go to matinees for a nickel on Saturdays and as you entered you were given a small envelope with from a penny to a quarter. The theatre was located on the south side of Vernor Highway about 2 doors from Clark Park in Detroit. It was a very popular theatre in the 40s.
