A new facade and marquee was added between 1948 and 1950. Multiple images added.
Great looking marquee.
The Strand was owned by Jessie Howe, a savvy business woman and wonderful lady. She also owned the Sunset Drive-In Movies, which was managed by Tucker and Irene Bowen (Howe’s niece). Tucker and Irene both worked at the Strand as well.
