The public library of Henderson County, North Carolina, has published a book titled “Buildings as History” which is about the works of Hendersonville architect Erle G. Stillwell. The Calhoun Theatre in Anniston, Alabama, is listed as one of the many theaters he designed.
What a shame. One beautiful theatre. Its plain but I love the marquee. Is it still standing?
Too bad it can’t be saved.
