In a chapter entitled “Development of Miami’s Theaters” of the book “Historical Sketches And Sidelights Of Miami, Florida" printed in 1925, local author Isidor Cohen mentions:

“About [1912] another movie was opened in the ‘Hunter’ building on East Flagler Street, between First and Second avenues, called ‘The Wigwam,’ by the late Clifford Brown. Mr. Brown excelled his competitors by equipping his theater with a mirror screen and by giving away pianos and automobiles to the lucky winners among his patrons.”
