The Alvin Theater, 1612 W Chicago, on Chicago between Ashland and Marshfield. In 1913, Alvin Alberti, son of Edward Alberti, started a small chain of theaters in Chicago. In 1914, he opened the Alvin Theater at 1612-14 W Chicago. The theater contained approximately 600 seats. In later years, it was part of the Balaban & Katz Wonder Theaters chain. Notice the movie posters. (1937)
