The architect firm for the Orpheum was Ritter-Vickers and the architect was Verus T. Ritter of Huntington WV. The plans we have are dated with 3 different dates in 1915. I guess they were done in stages.
Here is a few pictures of the tipton from our files. I also put a picture of the Lyric which was on 4th Avenue which Ken Mc talked about in the above post.
The Tipton was owned/operated by Greater Huntington Theatre Corp. I have some photos and the opening day newspaper ad I will try and post when I get a chance.
I’m confused about the midnight/karate kid thing? Last time I checked we didn’t do midnight movies!
Just posted photos of the Orpheum/Cinema we have in our files.
