Men, women and children are lined up to the ticket booth. Two parked vehicles are in the foreground. Published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram morning edition, December 28, 1941.

“Lakeside Theater was owned by Betty and Will Tomlinson. He,was Vice President of Screen Gems. I worked there in the mid 60’s selling tickets. They wanted me to move to Crescent City to run a theater there for them but I didn’t. They also opened the theatre by Cecils. I didn’t make much but it was a lot then.”
