If the Strand was the only theater opened at Oconowomoc in 1921,, then it was probably this project noted in the December 25, 1920, issue of The American Contractor:

“Theatre, Office & Store Bldg.: $25,000. 2 sty. & bas. 68x115. Oconomowoc, Wis. Archt. A. C. Clas. 205 Colby Abbott bldg., Milwaukee. Owner Oconomowoc Theatre Co., H. E. Welch & Philip Binzel. Oconomowoc. Mas. to J. L. Stanage, 144 Oneida St., Milwaukee. Carp. to Gunder Anderson, Oconomowoc. Fdn. in.”
Alfred Charles Clas, previously of the noted architectural firm of Ferry & Clas, had an independent practice in Milwaukee from 1912 to 1932.
