I grew up in Mt. Healthy as well and spent many a Sunday afternoon in that theater with my brothers and friends in the mid to late 60’s watching everything from Godzilla vs. Mothra to The Ghost and Mr. Chicken (Don Knots).Great Memories. Remember when Joe Blum would play his banjo at intermission? The screen also had a curtain that would open and close at the start and end of each movie, sometimes getting stuck. I never did get a ticket for a free movie pass in my popcorn bag.I believe the theater closed for good in 1970 or 1971.
