A Wurlitzer theater organ opus 1714 style “B” special was installed in the Harris Theater on 8/26/1927. Status: sold.
Probably part of the large chain of theaters owned by the Davis-Harris Theater Company of Pittsburg,Pa.

The Harris Theatre opened in the late 1920’s. It is listed in the Film Daily Yearbook 1941 with a seating capacity of 1,010 and the operator was Warner Bros. Circuit Management Corp. In the 1943 edition the listing shows 1,000 seats and by 1950 it has a seating capacity of 850 given, still under the Warner Bros. Theatre’s operation.
The Harris Theatre was demolished in the late 1970’s.
