This is a photo of 4th Ave North dated 1939 that shows the Champion Theater.
This theatre catered to African Americans.
The Champion Theatre was listed in the 1921-22 edition of the Julius Cahn-Gus Hill Theatrical Guide. The owner or manager was P. A. Engler, also listed as owner or manager of the Frolic Theatre. The only address given was 1774 Fourth Avenue, apparently the location of Mr. Engler’s office. CinemaTour lists the Frolic Theatre at 1720 Fourth Avenue. Though the Cahn guide lists both houses as picture theaters, the Frolic frequently presented live music shows.
The Champion Theatre has been demolished. It was two doors down from the Famous Theatre, which is still standing.
