Georgia Theatres Incorporated led by manager R. Sansone opened the Rex Theatre’s doors on September 6, 1928 with Fred Thompson in “Don Mike” along with the first chapter of “Hawk Of The Hills”. The Rex Theatre closed on November 1, 1975 with Vincent Price in “Madhouse”.
The Rex theater is now a church.
The Rex was not at the corner of Ray Street. The building can be seen in Street View if you shift several doors north.
The correct address is 724 Experiment (not 422).
Sorta an Ugly theatre.
I spent many Saturdays in the Rex as a kid. My Uncle, Wesley Brannon, was manager for many years. Thanks for the photo. Brought back many memories.
