I grew up by this theater, and was thrilled to get some information on it, as it has always caught my eye, with the classic sign and architecture. My dad saw “The Wizard of Oz” here as a kid. The flying monkeys scared him so much that he had to leave and ran all the way home.
Man, I can remember seeing so many movies here as a kid. It was only a dollar for the longest time, but did increase to two at the end. My mom would take us, and we would get candy at the K-Mart next door and sneak it in…
@Shanahan-it’s nothing now. There’s a big box strip mall there now. Remember the restaurant next door? (The Clock) That had a great old 50’s sign in front, and it, too is gone.
