Mike R. I do not believe they showed many silient movies in the 40s and 50,s.Photo link does not work anymore.
The Princess opened again after the fire. Here is a small photo of the Princess after renovations were done. Text with photo:
There was a fire at the Princess Theatre in the early 1950’s. When the old movie house caught on fire, the projection room was destroyed and there was smoke damage throughout the building. When the building was renovated, the look of the structure totally changed. As you can see from the 1953 photo, the orange, green and white tiles are replaced with a combination look of brick and stucco look.
The location that I found for this theater is West College Street & North Maple Street. This is a 1950s photo showing a fire at the Princess Theater.
The Princess may have had a Reproduco piano/organ unit for silent movie accompaniment.
