The Lux Theater was between 12th and 13th streets on Broadway. Not 15th. It was relatively new theater and had a unique feature where the seats slide fore and aft about 12 inches so that you can let people squeeze by in front of you without having to stand up. I remember seeing West Point with James Cagney there.

Prior to The El Rey Theater operating on a burlesque format, it was a movie theater featuring films that were less than new releases. As an enticement to patrons, they gave away one piece of chinaware to all women patrons on Monday Nights. You can collect a whole set if you frequent the theater during the promotion period. S. Taw
