The Richy Theatre opened in the early-1950’s and was closed by the late-1980’s. The building has since been demolished. In its later years the Richy Theatre played Spanish language movies. The site of the theatre is now a Pizza Hut.

You can’t even read the entire article. can you post the entire artiicle so it can be read. Seems newespaper article links are so dark a fuzzy anyway that they are hard to read.
It’s a screen capture. That’s why those articles are usually fuzzy.
I don’t know why they even post them, they are always so fuzzy or incomplete so that a person can’t read them anyway. Sometimes the article is cntd. on another page and the page is not posted.
I would have liked to read the article on the Richy since I passed the theatre hundres of times. Get a little more history and back round on the theatre. I remember that it played a lot of Spanish speaking films since the neighborhood close by was heavily populated with Spanish speaking people.
I don’t know, maybe it was posted to show the picture and not for the article itself. What I do know is, the Richy Theater is listed in 1955 with 592 seats. LOL
During the Early Sixties it went by the name,New Richy.“JOURNEY” was playing there Oct.2 1959.
