Across the street (from Norva Theatre) is “Hofheimer’s”, a shoe store at 325 Granby St. in Norfolk. This building was the location of the former Victoria Theatre, built in 1911 as a vaudeville/movie theatre. By 1916 it was renamed the Strand and operated as a full time movie theatre. As of 2017, the same building that was once the Victoria Theatre is still standing.
Thursday October 12, 1967 Grand Opening print ad added credit Chicago Tribune, via Tim O'Neill.
This is the post 1966 fire re-opening after being rebuilt.
It appears the address was likely 206 E. Main Street.
It has since been demolished and the First National Bank next door to the right expanded onto it’s property and a neighboring building to the bank’s left.
The 1946 photo shows only two columns on the bank, and today there are six via street view, which shows the same buildings to it’s left as in a 1930s photo in the book Warren County by Cody Prince & Krystal Tanner.
Including a 6 window former J.C. Penney 3 doors to the left which is still standing.
It was also open much earlier than the 1930s.
As I’ve added an early 1900s photo of the same view as the 1946 photo.

1933 pre-code film “Damaged Lives” being shown as Adults Only.
Gem Theatre was located in the Kennedy Building, which was reduced to two stories after a fire.
Undated post fire photo added credit Tony Kepper.
Current street view as two story building added as well.
Found references to the Rebel Theatre possibly moving from one location to another in this group.
Once I can sort it out I’ll set up a page for it as they have a couple pics.
Address is 333 Main Street, Penticton, BC V2A 5B7 Building is still standing as Mike’s Pawnbrokers today. The vertical backing of the Capitol marquee is still in place on the building facade’s right side. It and the roof line are outlined in neon lighting.
The neighboring Three Gables Hotel burned down in 2000 and is still a vacant lot to the left of the Capitol.

It appears to be about 40 miles West of Knoxville, and 80 miles North of Chattanooga.
