I have uploaded a picture showing a portion of the signage for the Princess. I created the site indicating the theater was on Garnett because of a postcard image I found showing adjacent buildings to the Princess identified as Garnett Street.

According to Joe Vogel, in a comment on Henderson’s Stevenson Theatre site, the Princess was part of the small Stevenson Theaters Company which also operated houses in Burlington, Greenville, Mesane and Raleigh.

I determined that the Stevenson circuit was incorporated in 1925. It’s interesting that the company was “Theater” but their playhouses were “Theatres”.
