From, a movie ad for the Strand Theatre in Wichita Falls.
Don…
The Strand was not an Interstate theater. It was Trans Texas. It was an art house in 1969 when I saw Darling and Belle du Jour during the summer.
My dad worked at the Strand for more than 25yrs I would love to see more photos if anyone has them
Many memories of going to the Strand when I was a kid in early 70’s. I remember the manager.
This opened on March 14th, 1921. Grand opening ad posted.
This was closed by Trans-Texas theatres in 1979
Destroyed by a fire on March 5, 1954, rebuilt that same year.
