That photo is of the other Queen on Main Street.

Thanks for pointing that out vmovies. There were two Queen theaters in Houston. The Queen Theater on Main Street is the theater that dates back to 1913 and the one that I intended to add. I’m going to ask that the address and seat count be changed for this theater listing so it will become the Queen Theater on Main Street.

Is the Queen Theatre at 2427 Jensen Drive listed at Cinema Treasures under another name?

I don’t see the Queen Theater on Jensen Drive listed on CT. The Queen had 665 seats in 1955.

All the links to the digital photos that LM posted say that the address for the Queen is the Queen at 613 Main St. so those photos are for this theatre.

From 1918 an image of a Labor Day parade in Houston with the Queen Theater visible in the center of the photo.
