Close up of marquee just prior to closing

This is a close up view of the marquee taken from the larger view of this photo as previously uploaded. The purpose is to show the double feature playing, which was “The Birds and the Bees” and “Inside Detroit”, both from 1956. Since the photo was taken just prior to the Paradise’s closing, it is quite possible that these were the last two films shown there. I would also point out the three school girls standing in front of the ticket booth. As they are all dressed alike, I suspect they are Catholic school students, quite possibly from Our Lady of the Angels, which suffered a devasting and tragic fire in 1958, after which the surrounding neighborhood was never quite the same.
