Spoke with a few WW II vetrans, about 10 years ago and they chatted about with Gone with the Wind (1939) and other classics where you showed up to see the first show and had to wait till the second show. They said prior and during WW II, the move closed for the summer too hot and no AC. I moved away form Richmond but have gone back to hear the organ/

My first job got a free ticket for Saturday afternoon double feature tickets, I carried a few hundred flyers to J Enos Ray office on Wednesday afternoon,and then office seperated them to each class. Each Flyer has a lucky number. I lived on Eastern Ave and on a clear night the sign was visible. Dairy Queen was blockaway with soft serve.
