This is a 1938 photo. It’s on EBay so it may disappear soon:

The 1938 photo has vanished, but here’s one dated 1940. The Ritz in the photo burned in 1947.

The new, Art Moderne style Ritz, designed by the Clarksville, Tennessee, architectural firm of Speight & Hibbs, opened in 1948 as reported in Boxoffice of October 16 that year. The Ritz was operated by the Ruffin Amusement Company, also operators of the Rex Theatre in Hickman.
