If you compare this image to the tinted postcard showing Main Street in Conneaut and the Academy Theatre I don’t think this is a match. The main entrance is different and I don’t think there was ever a tree near the curb as shows in this image.
This photo is from page 1533 of The Moving Picture World (1914). The accompanying article states it was sent to MPW by Edward C. Sacks of the Academy, Conneaut, Ohio. It is a photo of a successful promotion that involved presenting two dozen little boys with cowboy and Indian costumes and using them to publicize a screening of “The First Law of Nature.”
