Princess Theatre

This theatre appears on the 1911 Sanborn, in the western storefront of a modest 2-story commercial building.

The building was constructed sometime between 1904 and 1911, replacing a similar earlier structure. It was not especially deep, and the ground floor was divided into three quite narrow storefronts.

The theatre was probably a very basic early attempt to capitalize on the motion picture fad, and by 1924, it had been replaced by a store. Sometime after 1946, the building, and its neighbor to the west (the original 38 E. Auglaize Street), was replaced by a drab mid-century store, which uses the 38 address.
