Circa 1920 photo and description added courtesy of Mark Howell.
A photo from around 1920 of the Schilder Building at Chillicothe, Ohio in Ross Co. Sitting on the NE corner of Paint and 4th Street, it housed the Orpheum Theatre, then the Royal Theater, and then the Adena Theater. A confectionery store can be seen at the middle on the first floor where the Ice Cream, Candy sign is. The theater portion of this building is currently undergoing construction.
Lemon Street is today St. Johns Avenue. Google 200 St. Johns Avenue Palatka, FL and the Rowton’s tile and vacant lot can be seen there. Link won’t add to CT correctly.
The tile floor mentioned is actually from a store called Rowton’s that shared the building with the New Theatre.
It was torn down and today is a parking lot.
The bricks were used to build a home in Palatka as well.
Below is a Facebook link to the Rowton’s tile entryway.
RobertR, in 2004 you asked for a photo of a plane at the Fly-In Drive-In.
I just posted one from June 1948.
It may have been one of the LIFE Magazine photos posted in 2008, but those links are now dead.
The Rialto Theatre preceded the Manos Theatre on that corner, possibly the same building refaced with the above mentioned marble.
A circular corner section was removed and squared off.
Two photos presumably from the early teens added shwoinf the previous structure.
It appears a large auditorium is under construction in one of them.
