The Fort Plain Theatre was built in 1911 as a legitimate theatre and vaudeville house. By 1914 movies were also being screened. The theatre was under the management of the Smalley circuit by the 1920’s, and became Smalley’s Fort Plain Theatre. By 1941 it was Smalley’s Theatre.
Smalley’s Theatre was still open in 1950.

Is this the place that became “Ernie’s Pussycat Theatre” in the 70’s?
Sorry, I think Smalley’s in St. Johnsville became Ernie’s.
An item in a 1958 issue of Motion Picture Herald reported that Michael F. Cory, operator of the Strand Theatre in Canajoharie, New York, had purchased the Fort Plain Theatre from a subsidiary of Smalley Theatres.
