That large Plaza neon sign was installed in 1949 at a cost of $5000. I remember a newspaper article talking about the spinning ball at the top. I was only 9 years old then and my parents drove us downtown justs to see the large Plaza display.
The largest crowd I remember at that theater was when Old Yeller showed on a Saturday matinee. The place was packed and all the isles were jamed with kids They were actually sitting on the floor in both isles. I left after the movie was over and outside was two lines of people that were lined all the way down around the corner of the police station.
