The grassy area next to the tan building was an alley to the rear of the Earl. Used to be a diner. It is now a barber shop or similar venue.The theater was next to the alley and sat about 15 feet from Main street only the sidewalk seperated it from the road.To the right was an older home/ used car lot. A auto repair shop is located there now.

The Earl was a fine movie house located on Main Street in Knoxville where the Mobil convinience store is now located.The picture is correct as to its location. It sat on the south portion of the lot with the sidewalk in front.A lighted marquee sign facing east and west.Closed in early 80’s.
