I saw Murder By Death here in the 80s. Vacationed in the area in the early sixties. Remember a faded light blue exterior.

I found an old post card view of Main Street that looks like it was from the twenties. The Bangor Opera House is shown in the foreground. E-6824 is the card number. It appears that a blade sign for the Star is two buildings away. Perhaps the Adams-Pickering Block or the building closer to the opera house. Was there in July. It may be where Sleeper’s once was located.

Many summer nights spent here in the seventies. They would show a double feature for three nights, be closed for a day, then a different double feature for three nights. I think the double features were shown Thursday/Friday/Saturday and Sunday/Monday/Tuesday with Wednesday being the night they were closed. I remember there being a big clown painted on the sign. I moved away in 1978 so I am not certain of when it closed, but my next visit in 1985 was after it had closed.

I remember going to the movie theater in Calais a couple times when it opened in the mid-seventies. It was very small as I remember. Mostly had gone to the Queen but in summertime, it was the St. Croix Valley Drive-In.

I went to movies there in the 70s when I lived in Woodland.
