Doug Taylor has a web page for the International Cinema with two historic photos. The Oriole Theatre was originally designed by architect Kirk Hyslop in 1933. It was remodeled in 1941 with plans by Kaplan & Sprachman. One of the photos dates from 1945 when the house was called the Cinema, which name probably dates from the 1941 remodeling. It had become the International Cinema by 1947.
