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.

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

The Cameo Theatre is actually owened by the 501©(3) tax exempt Appalachian Education Communications Corporation (AECC) —– AECC also owns <b>WHCB 91.5 FM radio station located just across the state line with the AECC offices and studios located at 340 Edgement Avenue (Leitner Pharmaceutical Building) in Bristol, Tennessee.
Just prior to the 2004 November elections in the United States, AECC aired both the partisan, anti-John Kerry propaganda film Stolen Honor and the anti Michael Moore film Fahrenhype 411.
