I took photos of the Campus Theater in 1990. It was sitting empty. When I heard it was to be torn down I enquired as to why. The answer was that it had been converted into an indoor mall at some point and it was to expensive to restore.
If you go to my web site, http://www.cartart.co/campus.html, you will find the photo I took in 1993. I worked on it in Photoshop to make it look like it did in 1939. I cleaned up all the peeling paint, rusted chrome trim and replaced the missing sign. The Stillwater library had a pamphlet from the opening of this theater in 1939.
