August 7, 1947 grand opening ad of the African American $60,000 Silver City Theatre in photos. The 700 seat theatre architects were Dunn & Quinn from Lake Charles. The theatre is liquidated in 1951 but finds a new operator reopening that same year. Ads stop after the shows on April 11, 1955 and is offered for sale. The theater could have continued without ads.

I THINK this was an Afro-American Theater?
