This self-guided walking tour of Hammonton includes a picture of the Rivoli on page 11 of a PDF file. The picture is small, but the PDF zooms nicely.

Philadelphia Architects & Buildings has some drawings and floor plans of a theater in Hammonton for Sam Frank, dated 7/23/1926. The plans were by the firm of Magaziner, Eberhardt & Harris. As always, the full-resolution images are available only to PAB subrscribers, but this page has thumbnails.

I remember riding by in the sixties and the marquee said “McCales Navy Joins The Airforce” What year was that? Yes, Sam Frank had the Rivoli, The Circus Drive-in, The Colonial in Egg Harbor City, and the three Long beach Island theatres. I think he had the Penn in Pennsville too. There was once a theatre in Mayslanding, NJ called the Ritz? My Father told me that he watched Tom Mix films there when he was a kid. I believe that this was one of Sam Frank’s first theatres. I worked for “THE FRANKS” at the Greenwood in Trenton, NJ in 1970 I showed “Five Easy Pieces”.
