Are you still looking for seats? If so please email me at We have 183 antique theater seats for sale in Southern Illinois. They were installed in our church in the early 60’s and are believed to be from the Art Deco age (1920-1930). I do not know a lot of history but have been told they came out of a local movie theater in West Salem, Illinois. We have 21 rows of 5 seats and 13 rows of 6 seats. They are in very good shape. The padded seats were recovered in the early 80’s. They are cast iron frames with wood backs and wood arm rest. Let me know if you are interested and we will discuss cost, we are using the proceeds towards the remodeling of our church
Does anyone know if this theater was remodeled in the late 50’s or early 60’s. I believe our church in Grayville, IL purchased the old theater seats. We are getting ready to remodel our church and we plan to sell the seats.
Seats have been sold.
