The Alhambra Theater built as a nickelodeon show by Jackson & McMahon firm who also owned a film exchange in the city and were involved in early Marcus Loew nickelodeon education. Demolished sometime in the 1940's. The Alhambra had many names in it's lifetime, and many owners.

I have never heard of this one. Any other names? It was demolished before I was born anyway.

This Alhambra was one of many early nickel houses on West Fifth St. Not far away was the Lubin Cinema named for Lubin of Philelphia,Pa.
