This photo was snapped in January 1974. There is a banner below the marquee that announces a sneak preview. On January 18, 1974, there was a sneak preview of McQ, starring John Wayne. One week later, January 25, 1974, there was a sneak preview of SERPICO. So this photo was taken on one of those Fridays.
