The last ad I could find for the North 29 in the Charlotte Observer was on Jan. 2, 1973, for the double feature of “Shantytown Honeymoon” and “City Slicker at the Opry”.

At the time, the North 29 was advertising in a block with the Queen, the Albemarle Road, and the South 29. On Jan. 3, those three appeared in the Observer without the North 29.
