The State Theatre was the largest of the six theatres during the heyday of movie theatres. It was opened in 1927 by Publix with seating listed at 1,160 in its Atmospheric style auditorium. It was across the street from the smaller Winona Theatre that opened in the same year. In 1935 through its closing it was operated by Minnesota Amusement Co.
The State Theatre closed in 1957 and from what I could find it has since been demolished. Any further information on the State Theatre would be appreciated.

I’ve found a passing reference to the State Theatre in Winona from 1927, and an item about the reopening of the Winona Theatre in the November 30, 1929, issue of Movie Age said that improvements costing $5,000 were being made to the projection room of “…the atmospheric State Theatre in Winona.”
