This theater opened in 1916. The Bad Axe Theater website can be found here.
Did I say Illinois? All of those theaters are in Michigan. Sorry about that.
The Bad Axe was part of the Schulte Circuit in the early sixties. William Schulte was owner. The chain was headquartered in Chicago. Other Schulte theaters in Illinois at the time were the Bliss in Blissfield, the Drive-In and Main in Coldwater, the Oakdale in Hazel Park, the Howell in Howell, the Mariner in Marine City, the Romeo in Romeo, the Strand in Tecumseh and the Ryan in Warren.
Well “wheelieman”, “wheelieman” is a pretty queer name itself, so shut it and Bad Axe is the ownage.
You can see the Knights of Columbus plaque in this photo:

What a queer (1;2) name for a town!
And, another recent photo of the Bad Axe Theater, from a photostream at Flickr (I see a couple of other theaters in there, too.)
Another photo of the Bad Axe Theater is here.
I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be “Mr. High and Mighty”.
What a queer name for a town!
