I lived in Coolidge from 1950 to 1959 and remember the two theaters on Main Street, plus the drive-in south of town. I seem to recall that the Studio theater had the KCKY radio station studio located upstairs above the theater. That would have been where Dwane Eddy got his start by visiting his friend Lee Hazelwood who was a DJ there in the early 1950’s. The Studio theater was located on the SW corner of Roosevelt and main, and is now a vacant lot. The San Carlos was just south a couple blocks on Main across the street.
