This web page (and the subsequent one) has a brief history and a few photos of the Romina Theatre. Some original decorative details remain in the building’s interior even now.
The same web site offers this page, with the text of an article from one local newspaper’s January 2, 1929 edition, the day before the house opened. It has a description of the theater and other details, including the name of the architect, R. E. Carpenter.
There is also this web page with the text of the article about the theater from the issue of The Forest City Courier published the day of the opening. It goes into more detail about the plans for the opening night program.
This one opened on January 3, 1929.
There are plans to turn the old Romina into a bookstore.
