The Alden was the best!!! My parents would give me 50 cents every Saturday to go see King Kong, Godzilla, The Seven Gladiators,etc—-25 cents to get in, 10 cents for popcorn, 10 cents for a soda & a nickel for a candy bar. After the movie we’d run across Midvale Av & jump up the wall into the “Rock Garden” & re-inact the movie we just saw. PLEASE— If ANYONE reads this & has any PHOTOS of the ALDEN that you would be as so kind to let me make copies of so that i could re-live my youth i would be ever so grateful—compensation could be considered
