Newspaper listings ended in 1958.
My Grandfather Otto Belasco was the projectionist there sometime in the 1930’s prior to his death in 1935. He worked in various theaters in the western PA area. He used the assumed surname Belasco. He was an accomplished musician and would accompany the silent films on piano.
my dad took my to see the BLOB here. late 50’s/early 60’s. i forget, but it had just been released.
as i recall the movie theater was torn down and the lamont built in it’s place. i remember as a kid i watched a fight scene for the old tv serries, rt. 66 being filmed in fromt of the lamont.
Judging from the photos I’ve seen, I would be surprised if the restaurant building was a theater. It looks enormous. That’s just speculation, of course.
The restaurant photo on Google shows a sizable building. Are you sure this only had 300 seats?
