I don’t think 1100 Delmar is the correct address for the old Lamar Theatre movie theater. That is the address of the old (now closed) Lamar Elementary School and the picture seems to be of the school auditorium.
I remember going to movies like “Gunfight at the O.K. Coral” at the Lamar in the 1950s. It was indeed segregated then. I remember its location as over by the railroad tracks, perhaps on Oak St.
