The Cozy Theater opened in 1913. In 1940 it was renamed Rialto Theater. It closed in 1958, when it was sold and converted to a furniture store.

If you scroll down to “1958” on this website, you will find: “1958 — The Rialto Theater closed its doors. Rudy Graf, who had managed the theater for nine years, took over as night manager at the light plant.“ No mention of it opening again.
The 1960 Boxoffice article that mentioned the closing of the theater referred to the Cozy, which was how I added it. There was some editing done as apparently the theater was also called the Rialto. I don’t imagine there were two theaters in Truman that would account for the discrepancy.
Probably another Boxoffice mistake. The Cozy is mentioned twice at that link. “1919-The Cozy Theater reopened.” and “The first theater opened its doors in 1913 with the showing of silent movies. Talking pictures were first shown at the Cozy Theatre in 1929.”
Still listed as the 300 seat Cozy Theater in 1935. The only theater listed for Truman, MN.
I found two sites that list the Rialto as opening in 1940 and closing in 1958, it also states that the Cozy opened in 1913 and closed late in 1935. The Street is not Cisco it is Ciro. The address was 215 W. Ciro St., Truman, MN. 56088
