I can’t see the street numbers in the photo I took in June, but I had the impression that the theater building was the older one on the left and not the one with the marquee on the right. I will take another look the next time I’m in the area.

In 1963, the operator was West Side-Valley Theaters, out of San Francisco. General manager was Roy Copper. WS-V also ran the Grand in Visalia, which I am going to add as I don’t see it listed on CT.
