1937 post card added courtesy John-Marcus Murray.
The store is now called Furniture Showcase.
The closing date of 1990 is incorrect, as I remember seeing a few movies there that came out in the ‘90s. I remember one of the last movies shown there was (ironically) “Blast From the Past.” I also remember the theatre, at least in its later yers, having three screens.
A July 12, 1941, Boxoffice item about Walter Noa, manager of the Olson Brothers' Gaylord Theatre, said that he had managed the Gaylord Theatre’s predecessor since 1931. I also found a 1938 item mentioning James Olson of Gaylord, but the name of the earlier theater was not mentioned. Maybe it was called the Gaylord, too.
There are pictures of the former theater here: View link
