Nice deco gem on the street that borders TN and VA. The theatre is currently home to WHCB radio. Their website contains some photos of the Cameo.

Sad…it does not look good for the Cameo.
Don…
Although I did not get to see the interior, I was informed by some of the local merchants that it is relatively good condition.
No longer available on LoopNet but a local real estate is still listing the Cameo for sale. Website
This was the Cameo in 1983.

Does anyone know what year this theater closed? I go to Bristol all the time to antique and was curious. There is a picture from 1983 that looks like the theater was closed than. As of yesterday 7/4/09 it is still for sale. At least the Paramount down the street is open.

I was fortunate enough to be able to see the inside of the Cameo this weekend. It was a day of mixed feelings. Happy to see a bit of theater history, sad to see what time has done. It has been closed a very long time. But the building and theater still stand.
