ITS A SHAME NO ONE HAS A DECENT CLEAR PHOTO OF THIS THEATER KIDS LIVING IN THE AREA OFTEN WENT TO WITH DELIGHT ON WEEK ENDS TO SEE OLD WESTERNS,SCIENCE FICTIONS AND CLIFFHANGER SERIALS. THE ONLY PHOTO SHOWS THE FRAME OF THE MOVIE HOUSE. CANT EVEN FIND IN LIBRARIES.

Demolished in 1961, located at Willis & Hastings St. Looks to be a small neighborhood theater, with a stage. The proscenium appears to be about 35 feet long and 25 tall, based on observations of an old demolition photo.
