It was still there in the very early 60s.

I don’t remember ever seeing a theater on Philadelphia Avenue in the sixties or seventies. I wonder when this theater closed?

It was located on the main drag (Philadelphia Ave.)I believe that it was part of the early “The Franks” chain. My good friend John Rogers of MaysLanding, NJ use to work there as projectionist. John. is now in his eighties. He visited me in the booth of the Delsea Drive-in, when I was running it in 2004.
