i only have some newspaper articles about my family’s holdings of Theatre’s and some awards my dad received. As far as I know there was no advertising aside from the Marquee and posters. I was a young teen when it closed (about 13). I will get out my scrap book and try to upload some things I have.

i don’t have any movie ads. Unfortunately, when my father passed, I got rid of all the old posters. The movies played were second run, Bruce Lee, horror and some geared to the African American audience like, Blackula, and Mandingo. I personally was ruined by Jaws! I have some articles about “Bein Theatre’s” and some awards my father got for his contribution to the neighborhood. I’m not sure how I can share to this article. Any idea?

Gary Goldman ran this for 5 yrs. my family sold to him. My grandfather and father had it since the early 60’s until 1984.
