This is a 1970’s photo of a Times theater in Waukegan, IL. I’m not sure if its this theater since the name is Times and not Time.

Does anyone know who owned this theater or where I might be able to get a picture of the Times? My father and his brother used to go there every Saturday in the 1940s.

Brian, the Rialto was a seperate theater. The 1945 Film Daily Yearbook shows the Time as open with seating for 800 and the Rialto as open with seating for 1622.

Was this once known as the Rialto? I saw a Chicago Tribune article from Feb 3, 1935 about a Rialto that had been closed for 8 years at 25 S Genessee being remodeled in art deco style by Pereira & Pereira, about 600 seats

The building was torn down in the early 90’s now just a vacant lot.
