The Princess was stated around 1911-1913, when a man named Walter Caddell moved from Detroit Michigan. He came here with his company, Lancaster & Small Comedy Company, And he liked Wauseon so much, he moved here and organized the Princess with a man named Harry Sinerick.
I have been doing some more research And I found that a Mr. D.L. McLain was the manager when the Theatre was opened in 1952. Mr. McLain also had another Drive-In and thst was in Morenci, Michigan. It was called the Skyline Drive-In.
I just received my copy of the 1992 annual of the Paramount and it is very very nice. Well worth the money. It has pictures in it I had not seen before.
I have an album of Now is The Hour recorded by Virg Howard of the organ and I was wondering how much it might be worth? Not that I would sell it but just in case.
They finally removed the screen which had stood (in various forms)) since 1952. It was very sad to see it go.
