Love those Lobby Cards,Real Theatre business in those days. Nice picture 1977.Lousy movie.
What is going o with the McCutchen now. I went over there several years ago and was interested in buying. Someone told me the roof had completely fell in. I just left. I bought a theater that had severe roof problems and didnt want to go throught that again.
This was the American Theatre, which opened in the late 1920’s.
The American Theatre was open as early as 1926.
