Vintage 1930s, I believe, theater in Cobleskill, New York. Still plays only one screen – movies are only $4! It’s a great place and definitely a different experience than a modern multiplex.

The theatre is situated at 1 Park Plaza. According to the 1957 Film Daily Year Book, it had 650 seats.
I was at the Park last weekend, and said hi to the current owner. In the lobby are framed advertisments from their 1944 new year’s eve show, 5 features for 44 cents. Yes, it’s only $3.50, and popcorn and drinks are a buck each. I’ve seen a few movies there, nice large screen, large auditorium.

This is a recent photo of the Park Theater.
I stopped in Cobleskill on the way back from Troy to take a picture of a B&B that bears the last name of a friend.
I came to a fork in the road and saw an unusual marquee like vertical sign.
When I got closer I saw it said Park Theatre, so I stopped for a look on the way back.
It looks to be stuck in time sometime in the 1970’s.
With a modern flick though.
