During the late 40’s and early 50’s my friends and I never missed a Saturday matintee at the Atlas. We would sit there for five and a half hours watching two full lenght movies, Three Stooge’s short, two cartoons, a newsreel and a preview of coming attractions. All for the grand sum of 12 cents for admission. With 13 cents left over from a quarter you could buy two large nickel candy bars and six long pretzels. Those were the days and I still have fond memories of walking with my friends to the Atlas to see a Roy Rogers picture.
