A “Blizzard” cooling system was installed in 1926.

The October 9. 1954 issue of Boxoffice said that “O. A. Dickson is contemplating closing his Colonial at Alma, Kas., during December.” Dickson had run the Colonial since at least 1945, when he was mentioned in the April 7 issue of Boxoffice.

In a classified ad in the October 13, 1956 issue of Boxoffice 200 theater seats were offered for sale by Fred L. LaMar of Alma, Kansas. They probably came from the Colonial.
