hollywood90038, thanks for the photos. What’s up with the big fence on the rooftop? Is there a tennis court up there?

Hi all, our grandmother (97 y/o) grew up in the area. Her father-in-law was producer George Sherwood who used to produce plays there in the 20s when it was called the “Vine Street Theater”. I scanned a 1929 program cover, and a page which shows George Sherwood’s name as well. We also have a few extra programs:

Hi all, our grandmother (97 y/o) grew up in the area and says the theater was called “Vine Street Theater” in 1929. Her father-in-law producer George Sherwood used to produce plays there. Earliest record we have with the “Vine Street Theater” name is 1929. I scanned a program cover, and specific page which shows 1929 (and George Sherwood name as well):

We have a few of these programs in our possession.
