A photo promoting the 1941 version of “The Black Cat” starring Bela Lugosi and Basil Rathbone. Also in the photo is Jeff Hardin. Mr. Hardin had a very successful career selling advertising for the Wallace Theater chain for many years.
This photo was probably taken in 1941 at the Rose Theater in Andrews.
The contirbutor of this posting, David Stoebner is correct about the ownership of the Rose, the Mustang Drive-In and in addtion to that the Wallace Theater in Andrews which were all owned by Wallace Blankenship.
Here is a 1986 photo of the Pix Theater showing an attached cafe and antique shop. The function should remain “closed theater” which is what it is, thank you very much.
