The 1918 Sanborn map of McAlester shows a bakery and restaurant at 113 N. First Street, so the Star Theatre had been dismantled at least three years before the Rex opened in the Star’s former building.
The October 2, 1915 issue of Motography mentioned a Star Airdome in McAlester: “The Star Airdome at McAlester, Okla., closed for the season Saturday night, September 11. The Dome will reopen in the spring with A. Bert Estes as manager and will show moving pictures on dates not filled by stock, musical comedy and vaudeville companies.” I haven’t been able to find evidence of any connection between the Star and the Star Airdome, but it seems likely there was one.
