The April, 1913, issue of a regional magazine called The Northern Crown contains an advertisement for the Mystic Theatre. No address is given, but assuming it was the same house as the current Mystic Theatre, it has gone back to what was probably its original name.
A few 2011 photo can be seen here and here.
There is a brief shot of the State Theater in the background, in a scene in “American Graffiti”. I believe it is when Milner pulls up to save Toad during a beating by the car thieves who stole the `58 Impala. Also when Milner returns to his own car.
This is an August 2009 photo.

Very nostalgic at finding this link. I was the projectionist at the then State Theatre from sometime in 1968 until January 1970. Alan Finlay was the owner.
More photos can be seen here.
The July link has expired so here is another photo.
Here is a 2008 view of the marquee at night.

Here is another recent photo of the Mystic Theater.
This theatre was also called the State, at one point. It was the Plaza when I photographed the exterior in 1984. My photo shows it playing a double feature of “Kagemusha,” and “Throne of Blood.” A year or two later, it had been renamed Palace. By the late 1990s, it had been renamed McNear’s Mystic.
This is a photo of the Mystic Theater.
Cinematour gives aka names of Plaza and Palace for the Mystic Theater. I couldn’t confirm that information so I didn’t include those name.
