This small but charming single-screen movie house shows first-run films. Originally opened in the late-1920’s, the Strand Theatre has been remodeled over the years, most recently in 1994. It features a beautifully intact Art Deco style facade and marquee illuminated by neon and lightbulbs.

This one in Popcorn Palaces on page 83 is most like my hometown theatre as it sits on a corner and not between store fronts..the big difference is that this one is still open and was remodeled!

So nice to find this art deco theatre with its beautiful art deco style facade intact and its original marquee with illuminated neon and lightbulbs. I applaud the folks of Caro for keeping their little town theatre looking great after all of these years!

Great news as this art deco is a “cinema treasure”!
