The Pix Theatre launched for Glen D. Thompson Theatre Circuit on November 7, 1937 with “A Star is Born.”
In 1963, the Pix was operated by Thompson Theaters of Oklahoma City. Glen and Richard Thompson were the partners. Other Thompson theaters at that time were the Thompson Theater and Choctaw Drive-In in Atoka, the Ritz in Britton, the Thompson Theater in Healdton, the Thompson Theater and Chickasaw Drive-In in Tishomingo, the Cozy in Wagoner, the Okla Drive-In and Thompson Theater in Walters and the Derrick Drive-In and Thompson Theater in Wilson. The information is from the 1963 motion picture almanac.
These two 1930s images are most likely those of the Pix Theatre in Atoka, OK.
