The State in Madison ME is on a long list of movie theaters in Maine which appeared in THS Marquee Magazine, lst qtr, 1991. The list was compiled by Douglas Gomery and Karen Sheldon who are involved in the CinemaData project on-line. Yet, the State is not listed there, which makes me wonder if it is listed, but under a different name ??
