Located on the corner of N. 2nd Street and Vine Street. The Standard Theatre was opened prior to 1923, when a Wurlitzer organ (Opus 632) was installed on March 14, 1923. By 1941 it had been renamed North Camden Theatre. It became a live burlesque theatre in the late-1950’s. It became a church and is now used for storage.

Correct address is 203 Vine St.
This was part of my paper route. Vine street would be the correct address. Pearl street was over by bridge.
