The Baker Grand was equipped, as all Saenger Theatres, with a Robert Morton Theatre Organ, 2 manuals, 5 ranks. The organ has been rescued by Natchez resident Burnley Cook, has been restored, is playable, and resides in his residence in Natchez.

Needs to be listed as demolished.

If you link to the postcard of the Baker Grand Theatre, click on “previous” to see another postcard of the same building, but called OPERA HOUSE.

This picture is of the Eola Hotel, located a couple of blocks from where the Baker Grand once proudly stood. The theatre was build in 1902-03 as an opera house and converted to a movie theatre later. Sadly, it was torn down in 1972 or 73. A horrible building stands on the spot now. Maybe the site was cursed by the destruction of the theatre because nothing on that spot has been a success. Feel free to contact me if you want to discuss. Wayne
