@Teecee…Jim Thatcher’s post is incorrect. The building at the RIGHT of the view is the old Pix Newsreel, NOT the building at the left with the Pizza Center on the first floor. The Pix was already closed and vacant (but still surviving as a theater) as late as the 1960’s. This is not the same as the Embassy, which was located several blocks west. The Palace was several blocks east on the opposite side of Main Street.

TC;
My 1950 edition of Film Daily Yearbook gives a street address of the Pix Newsreel Theatre as 319 Main Street. The Embassy Theatre at 347 Main St had 1,915 seats.

1951 FDY lists an Embassy Theater at 347 Main Street. Is this the same theater?
