W.M. Turner opened the Linn Theatre on June 29, 1940 with Alice Faye in “Hollywood Cavalcade” (unknown if extras added), and was the first movie theater to operate in Linn since the closure of the St. George’s Theatre in 1929.

The Linn Theatre closed for the final time on April 12, 1970 with Paul Newman in “Winning”, and the former theater was converted into a clothing emporium owned by Betty Mantle in June 1970. The clothing store would later open on July 10, 1970.
