2006 Photo of the Paramount Theatre.

The Paramount apparently opened in 1930. An item in the May 12, 1958, issue of Boxoffice magazine contains the following line: “Dahmer joined Jefferson Amusement Co.-East Texas Theatres in 1930 as an usher at the opening of the Paramount Theatre in Marshall, Tex….”
A 1949 item in Boxoffice’s “From the Boxoffice Files (Twenty Years Ago)” feature said that West Texas Theatres had purchased a lot at Washington and Burleson in Marshall and would build a theater on the site.
Views of the Paramount from 2009 here and here in Marshall, Texas.
Here are two 1982 photos:

Exquistely bored…you have some great pictures on flickr. I enjoy all your theater stuff. Keep up the great work.
Whoa – the bidding war must be on at the theater’s eBay listing. I’m getting tons of visits today (my link is the one listed above).
This link has more photos of the Paramount Theater. About halfway down the page.
