1949 aerial photo added showing the location of the Yucca Theatre on Fourth Street.
Motion Picture Herald, Oct. 11, 1952: “Albuquerque Exhibitors Inc. … have closed the Yucca, Chief and Rio, three small old theatres all of which have outlived their usefulness.”
This opened on January 10th, 1947. Grand opening ad in photo section.
Circa 1945 photo added, photo credit Don J Akin‎. Apparently it later showed burlesque.
The ‘founders’ (early congregants) of St. Therese Catholic Church held services at the Yucca in the late 40s before the permanent church was built nearby
