This is the only thing that shows that the theater used to be here, portions of the terrazo in the sidewalk in front of the theatre.

It would be nice if anyone who lived in Hollister in days past would ask around among their older friends and see if there aren’t some private photos of the theatre, maybe some taken inside for some kind of special event, people who may have worked there whose pictures were taken. I am sure they are out there if we ask around.
In this photo can be seen three fragments of the terrazzo sidewalk which was in front of the theatre entrance. Most of the terrazzo was destroyed during the demolition, and it appears that nearly everything that did survive was retained here, as best as I can remember. The fragments are not at all in their original position, and it is clear that when the city redid the sidewalks, these fragments of the remaining terrazzo surface which survived the demolition were saved and placed in a new concrete patch. Not a whole lot left, but at least someone cared.
