This photo, was taken in 1940 by my grandfather Albert S. Johnson, and just surfaced in one of his widow’s boxes of photos. On the back, in Al’s handwriting, is “Bay City.”
Al’s Johnson Construction Company completed a remodeling project on the Roxy, though family records don’t include the date. Based on the only other photo on this website, which shows the theater name as the Roxy, a new streamlined marquee, and two films that were released in 1939, my best guess is that the “late 1930’s” date given in the theater’s history was actually 1939.
