This is the old concession/projection building but you wouldn't know it from this photo. It has been turned into a residence. Is that the projectionist in the window? See the next photo.

One last look at the screen and old concession building that is now a house. The woman who lives there ended up in the picture at the corner of the house but you can't see her with the low resolution of the scan.

This photo shows the marquee, arcade, and the sign for the auto repair place. I was disappointed about how this photo turned out when scanned, so I did it over. Please see the next photo.

Marquee with "Buyers Auction" advertised and "Five Hills Auto Repairs" sign. To get this photo, I scanned the previous photo at 600 pixels/inch and cropped it. This one turned out sharp.
