CT page added for the Bungalo Theatre across the street from the Princess. Former Union Hall building, demolished sometime after 2013.

I have found photographic evidence of the possible Bungalow Theatre on Main Street in White Hall in 1925. It is the former Union Hall now demolished, directly across from the Princess Theatre. It has a poster out front that reads “Big-Hearted Jim”, which was a 1925/`26 comedy/drama per the American Film Institute Catalog of Motion Pictures. I will temporarily post the photo in the gallery so the Admins & experts can examine it. I have a 2013 street view link that still has it standing, but the link will not post to CT correctly. Here is a Flickr link of what the now demolished building looked like. It is also in the 1925 photo in the gallery for comparison. Address was 121 N Main St, White Hall, IL 62092.

The Princess Theater building is at 120 N. Main Street. It actually looks to be in pretty good shape, in both street view and satellite photos.
The March 13, 1915, issue of The American Contractor had this item about thenew theater being built at White Hall:
This item is from the November 6, 1915, issue of The Moving Picture World: In 1911 White Hall had a movie house called the Bungalow Theatre. I haven’t found any details about it, or what became of it.Yes, that 2001 photograph is the former Princess Theater, White Hall, IL.
