Rialto Theatre

The Rialto listed in FDY’s in the 1940s and 1950s is either a mistake or was at a different location. This photo of the Cameo looks to have been taken around 1940 (judging from the cars, as the titles on the Cameo marquee aren’t clear enough for my eyes) and the Woolworth store had already taken over the space formerly occupied by the Rialto and its neighbor to the south. A page from the Anniston Photo Archives says that the Woolworth store moved to this location ca.1939, so the Rialto had to have been gone by then.
