The front of this unusually named theater was blown off in a February 1925 explosion, which followed a dispute over non-union employees. The owner of the theater at that time was Earl H. Roraback.

It must have been repaired as in the 1941 & 1943 editions of Motion Picture Yearbook it is listed with a seating capacity of 350, but ‘Closed’.
