This web page has the only photo of the Glen Theatre I’ve seen on the Internet, and it’s thumbnail sized. The people in the photo are most likely Fritz Campen Jr., manager, and his sister Anna, who sold the tickets, but the caption doesn’t include this information.

The painted sign on the building reads “Glen Moving Picture Theatre” though by the time the house was listed in the Film Daily Yearbook it was spelled Glenn Theatre. That could have been a mistake by the FDY, so perhaps I should have reversed the page title and the aka. Also, the page subsequent to the one I linked to above says that the original Glen Theatre building was destroyed by a fire in 1949, so this theater can be marked as demolished.
