Open at least ~1919-~1925? Can anyone verify the exact dates?
Originally called the Majestic Theater. The name was changed to American after it was purchased in 1919 by Foster McSwain.
Need an address or crossroads, more info and photos.
Uploaded the grand opening ads for American from November 11th, 1919 and the first ad for the Hamly from April 23rd, 1928. The Hamly’s listing stopped in 1929.
This opened as the Pastime Theatre on September 3, 1909 with the films “Wilbur Wrights' Aeroplane” and “The Leapold Queen” along with musical performances by Ms. Ruby Baker on vocals and Ms. Ruth Smootz on piano and a four-piece orchestra that comes along with the program.
It was renamed the Majestic Theatre on July 30, 1911, the American Theatre on November 11, 1919, and the Hamly Theatre on April 23, 1928.
