Here is another photo of the Circle Cinema.
Did the Rollier & Meta Theatre’s mentioned above as owned by old okie’s parents, ever get added to CT?
I couldn’t find either listed even in a previous names or city search. Just curious.

There are no theatres in Lamont on CT other than the Drive-In. Also I believe that this is a photo of the theatre that LM was tlaking about. The R is clearly on the front of the Marquee. This link lists the theatre as the Metro in Lamont. So is this or is it not the Meta Theatre that Okie is talking about? I am sure it is the one that LM is talking about.
