Joe Vogel: The only theatre that would make sense is the Royal. I don’t know of any Palace in Olneyville. There were short-lived storefront operations, most of which had disappeared by that time. Either he is referring to the Royal or else to a Palace I never read anything about and never saw in any listing or ad from that time.
The State was on Court Street. See the MGM survey card from 1941, posted herein.
It looks like the Strand was closed at that time too. The marquee has an ad for a local car dealer.
“Slim Shoulders” dates to 1922.
1938 program.

The film dates to 1919.

That’s 1941, not 1914, as on the card.
