Ron if the building is still standing could you provide a full address. Maybe Google will pick up the image.
The Theatre Historical Society on-line archive has the MGM Theatre Report for the Colby; it’s Card # 344. Address is Main St. (no street number listed). There is an exterior photo dated May 22, 1941. Condition is Good. The report says that the Colby opened in 1940, was not showing MGM films, and had 386 seats. The 1940 population was 1,200.
The Colby published printed programs; some of these can be found for sale on e-Bay. The most recent one that I found listed was for a week in 1949. A town anniversary parade in Colby (around April 2012) passed certain old buildings in town, and the Colby was one of them. So, still standing as of 2012, use unknown. Also, exact address unknown to me.
