A 1945 photograph shows the Jefferson Theatre in a 2 story store front with a small triangle marquee. The Jefferson Theatre was still open in 1950.

Address is 703. The building is still there. Everything else in the photo except the nearest building is long gone. It’s in pretty shabby condition, and looked like it was home to a dance studio.
By the way, the cars in the photo are all wrong for 1932. Movie appears to be ‘The Strange Mr. Gregory’ from 1945. What looks like a date at bottom right must be a stock number.
The only Sanborn map I can find any evidence of is from 1929, and is not available online. The building looks like it was constructed sometime around 1920. It was probably not meant to be a theater, since it’s very deep and narrow. Sometime maybe around 1960, the ground floor was remodeled with a rock veneer and plate glass windows.
