This 2003 article from Sitnews talks about the Kubley family of Ketchikan, one of whose members, Lawrence Kubley, opened the Dream Theatre (later renamed the Revilla in a contest) in the 1920s.
I found a Liberty Theater with a location given as Front Street in Ketchikan, AK. Would that be another name for this theater, or was the Liberty Theater a different theater than this one?
The 1941 and 1943 editions of Film Daily Yearbook list the Coliseum Theatre;700 seats and the Revilla Theatre;480 seats in Ketchikan, Alaska.
I believe that the Coliseum Theater is also listed here, Ken. This website has photos of the Liberty Theater. Since the location was Front Street, I thought it might be another name for the Revilla/Dream Theater.
In 1963 the Revilla was part of the B.F. Shearer theater chain.
