This theater opened about 1908 as the West End Electric Palace, and was rebuilt as the Franklin Theatre in 1912. An advertisement for the house’s first anniversary as the Franklin can be seen on this web page.
This page at Historic Evansville says the theater was remodeled in 1941, became an adult theatre in 1983, and was demolished in 1994. That page has a link to several additional photos of the theater.
Header should read Studio Art with an aka Franklin Theatre. Last known name was Studio Art.

Name was changed to “Studio Art” at some point – it was a pornographic movie theater during the 70’s and 80’s.
