Here is an April 1959 item from the Monroe County News:

Albia will again be one of the first towns in the country to see a motion picture when “Alias Jesse James” receives its Midwest premier showing starting Thursday at the King Theater. The film, a western comedy, stars Bob Hope and Rhonda Fleming. The plot develops after Hope sells Jesse James a life insurance policy and then tries to keep him alive.

See if you can find a picture of the Rio at 118 Central SW in Albuquerque, or the Sushi King, which is there now. I was trying to navigate through the Flicker deal but I am hopelessly outclassed by the master.

I’m on cruise control. When I start posting all of the 70,000 plus theater related Flickr photos, one at a time, we’ll see who the slow one is. :P

Hey, I can’t help it if you’re a little slow.
