Was this theatre later twinned and became the Frederick 2 and later the Atlantic 1 & 2?
From the March 4, 1950, issue of Boxoffice: “R.W. Steen, whose Atlantic Theatre in Atlantic, Iowa, burned recently, is to rebuild. O.C.Johnson, manager of the wrecked showhouse, and of the Strand of Atlantic, made the announcement.”
I can’t find any other references to a Strand Theatre in Atlantic, but there are quite a few references to a Grand Theater, so I think “Strand” might have been an error in this particular article. Both houses were operated by Pioneer Theatres.
And I think this page might be a duplicate listing of the Atlantic 1&2 page, so I’m cross posting the comment there.
