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.

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.
