I saw several films at the Nob Hill Theatre in the late Fifties and early Sixties, when I was a kid. It was an art house by then, and I especially remember seeing “I’m All Right Jack,” with Peter Sellers, and “Lawrence of Arabia,” with whatshisname.
It was a real vest-pocket theatre, so it certainly did not have 199 seats, and it was closed in 1964 to make way for an expanded Tonga Room. The radio studios of KSFO were also tenants of the Fairmont.
