Went to alot of movies at the State Theatre in East Liverpool in the 50 and 60’s. I remember the balcony at that theatre. It seemed like it was always roped off and closed because of the sporatic attendance mostly all the time. I used to get my popcorn and pop, duck under the rope leading up to the balcony, and got a perfect seat in the middle front seat looking down at the picture instead up looking up. It was great!
I WENT TO A LOT OF MOVIES AT THE COLUMBIA THEATRE AS A KID IN THE 50’S AND 60’S. AT ONE TIME THE THEATRE CLOSED DOWN AND REOPENED MONTHS LATER IN THE EARLY 60’S AND THE PRICE WAS ONLY 35 CENTS TO SEE A TRIPLE FEATURE! HECK, WITH A BUCK, YOU COULD SEE THE 3 MOVIES, GET POPCORN AND A COKE, AND STILL GO HOME WITH CHANGE!
I was just a kid from the West End (grade school age)in the early 50’s. I remember going to the Ceramic Theatre to see the scary pictures in 3d wearing those silly paper colored glasses. After the picture, when it got dark, I was scared to walk home even with my bigger brothers thinking the monster would come out and grab me on the sidewalk, so I walked home down the middle of 8th st under the street lights keeping aware of my surroundings. Note: you know, it is 55 years later, and they still have 3d pictures where you still gotta wear those silly paper colored glasses!
