Listed as operating since at least 1941 when the Brokaw Theater is listed in the Film Daily Yearbook with a seating capacity of 400. In the 1943 edition of F.D.Y. seating is given as 700 and in the 1950 edition it is 576 seats.
The 1941 edition of Film Daily Yearbook gives a seating capacity as 240. It’s still the same by the time the 1950 edition of F.D.Y. was published, only in this edition and address of Howard Street is given.
Film Daily Yearbook;1941 and 1943 editions list Ward’s Theatre with 400 seats as the only theatre in town. In the 1950 and 1952 editions of F.D.Y. the only theatre listed in Pismo Beach is the Pismo Theatre with a seating capacity of 678 given in both editions.
The Odeon opened with Julie Andrews in “Thoroughly Modern Millie” so the first photo I posted above is from around May 1968 during it’s ‘Roadshow’ presentation here and not ‘early 1969’ when that film went on Odeon general release. The cinema was equipped with 70mm projection facilities.
RickB;This address maps as a suburb of Trenton, NJ. I can’t find any listing for the Hamilton Theatre in Film Daily Yearbooks that I have for 1941, 1943 or 1950.
ken mc;It is a different theatre. It is the Redding Theatre, 1537 Califormia Street, Redding. CA. that had a seating capacity of 1,002. It currently does not have a listing on Cinema Treasures.
