    Theatre Catalogs WANTED for Archiving Project

    The Drive-In Exchange, Ltd. is preparing to archive all of the “Theatre Catalogs” that were released by Jay Emanuel Publishing starting from their pre-Theatre Catalog of 1939 through the 1970 Theatre Catalog edition of The Motion Picture Exhibitor.

    Our purpose is to make the articles, advertisements and features of each individual volume available to everyone in a digital PDF format. Our search for these catalogs over the past 10 years has enabled us to find most of the rare volumes. The volumes that we are currently in need of are the 1959, 1961, 1962, 1964, 1966, 1967 and 1968 editions.

    If anyone out there would like to either sell or donate any of these volumes to use for these archival purposes, we will send you the Theatre Catalog Digital collection (probably on DVD volumes) when they become available for free.

    Please contact us ASAP if you can. Thank you.

    Looking For A Mentor

    I’m looking to buy an independent movie theatre in the next eight years and would, in the mean time like to find a business mentor to help guide me through the process of what it takes to own and operate a succesful theater.

    I would greatly appreciate any help towards finding a mentor as I have no clue, nor have I come across anyone willing to take on such a rewarding task.

    Looking for a Theater

    I live in New England and I’m looking for an old theater currently doing nothing but sitting in a community that may or may not have expressed an interest in getting it up and running again… or just waiting for the right person to ‘get the wheels in motion’. Any help?

    Trying To Find “Exit”

    I am trying to track down a copy of Robert Headley’s 1974 book, Exit: A History of Movies in Baltimore. There’s a copy in the Library of Congress, but I am based in London, UK, and that’s a long way to go just to find out that the book is not what I am looking for.

    Is anyone aware of a UK library that holds a copy or where I might get hold of my own copy?

    Help With History on a Theater

    DETROIT, MI — I have found pictures on the net of a theater downtown Detroit called Shubert/Lafayette Shubert. My guess is that it was located on Lafeyette. You could see the David Stott building in the background. The demolition pictures show me demolition was in the 50’s by my guess. Can anyone provide any history and pictures? Thank you.
