Mr. Van Bibber is correct. It was originally named the Strand Theatre. I have their monthly printed program for May 1927. At that time, they ran double features that changed every third day. Matinees daily and evenings at 7:45 (“All Seats Reserved Evenings”). Some of the double features that month were “The Scarlet Letter” starring Lillian Gish and Harry Myers in “The Bachelor’s Baby,” Bebe Daniels in “A Kiss in Taxi” and Ben Lyon in “A Perfect Sap,” and Adolphe Menjou in “Evening Clothes” on a bill with “Jewels of Desire” starring Priscilla Dean.
