There was a story in the Appleton Post-Crescent on 9/9/59 about a fire which destroyed the screen and tower at the 41 Outdoor Theater. Do you think this is the same as the 41 Twin? The story says the 41 Outdoor opened in April 1949.
I have been working on my wife to get me into the Stadium on a Friday night. I won’t be able to take pictures, but I would love to see the current interior.
