Information for this theatre was obtained from the book “The Old Movie Theatres of Texas”
In a 1954 El Paso phone book I have, the owner is listed as C. M. Garrett. Phone number was 3-4682
C.M. Garrett was probably the only operator the Yandell Theatre ever had. He made frequent contributions to Boxoffice Magazine’s “The Exhibitor Has His Say” feature in 1947 and 1948. Boxoffice of May 9, 1960, reported that Clayton Garrett had closed the Yandell Theatre and sold its projection equipment. He had attempted to sell the theater as a going business but there had been no takers.
