The Warner Theatre was the largest and most lavish in the State of Delaware. It opened on February 8, 1939.

It closed in December 1976 and in the summer of 1977 it was announced that the auditorium section of the building would be demolished and turned into a parking lot.

Can anyone give me info on the Cinemart on Gov Prinz? I can't find any info anywhere, but, I stop to look at it every time I'm in the area. What a mystery. The only thing I can tell is that I was built in the 60's due to the chandelier and font on the front sign.
