I have many fond memories of this theater. When I first moved to San Diego in 1969, I was 7 years old and we lived about a block from it.Later, we lived over on Jutland Drive and it was a second run theater where you could see a double feature and a cartoon for the tidy sum of 49 cents. My brother and I got a dollar a week for allowance, so my mom would drop us off at Rascos dime store in the Clairemont Square where we could buy candy by the bulk. We could get ¼ lb, of candy for 50 cents. Then we walked over to the theater around noon and mom picked us up around 5. Good deal for us AND Mom!
