My brother Gerald and I went to the RKO Albee Theater starting in 1957. My Grandmother Clara and Great Uncle Albert took us there. The Albee was my favorite theater in downtown Providence. I vividly remember the posters and lobby cards from Roger Corman’s “The Undead” and “I Was a Teenage Werewolf” and many, many other movies that played there.
I have a box of Jean Harlow photos that belonged to Albert. In the box is a large envelope from RKO Radio Pictures, Inc. in New York that is addressed to “David Levin, Mgr., RKO Albee Theatre” and another envelope from “Irving Klaw” in NYC. I believe this is where Albert may have purchased or was given these black and white photos.
I am in the process of writing a book on the late actress Sandra Dee who I met in 1994 for an interview. I saw many of Sandra’s Universal Pictures at the RKO Albee.
I have collected several RKO Albee postcards through the years. In my book, I plan to talk about what it was like going to the Albee to see her films.
I am looking to correspond with anyone who has any knowledge and memories about the subjects I have written here.
