I lived in the Tower Theatre in the early 40’s. My father was the projectionist and I have so many beautiful memories of that building. When a film had completed its run, my father would place the octagonal film cans containing the reels on the curb in the darkness outside the theatre. The bus driver (on the last bus of the night) knew to pick up the reels and deliver them to the next town! All my memories of that building are lovely ones.
