Opened December 25th, 1904 per:
The Richmond Times-Dispatch of March 5, 1902, said that Jake Wells had returned from a visit to New York during which he had consulted architect Fuller Claflin and visited some of the city’s newest theaters in preparation for replacing his Richmond Bijou. Claflin’s firm, the Amalgamated Theatre Building Association, subsequently designed several houses for Wells’s Bijou Theatre Company, including the new Bijou in Richmond, the chain’s flagship.
It’s about time that someone put this theater on here.How about adding other downtown theaters to cinema treasures.
From the early 1900s a postcard image of the Bijou(Strand) in Richmond.
