Looks like the Granada was reopened for a while.
Boxoffice, March 15, 1952: “The Granada Theatre Corp., organized by Gordon Gray and a group of associates, has purchased the Granada Theatre here from B. J. Leavitt, who operates other showcases in California and Arizona. Earle Johnson, head of a Los Angeles theatre service firm, will handle the booking and buying chores.”
Grand opening ad posted.
Motion Picture Herald, Jan. 19, 1952: “The Granada, La Jolla, operated by Bernie Leavitt, closed.”
Opened 25 March 1925 with 712 seats.Architect was William R Wheeler.Closed May 1952.
Atmospheric Spanish architecture with Robert Morgan organ were all part of La Jolla’s “theatre beautiful,” the Granada’s marketing tag-line.
