My Great Uncle was Joeseph Trinz, originally from Vienna Austria, who owned and started the Lubliner and Trinz movie chain in Chicago in the early teens. He was an early investor in Nickelodeans that later became moving pictures. He was bought out by Baliban and Katz in the late 1930’s. As a child, my father would go out from New York to Chicago with is mother to visit in the summer and could walk into any movie house for free because of his Uncle Joe!
