It should also be noted that on the description of the J.W. Sandison Chaplin contest photo in the link above, it was taken November 5, 1921 not 1919 as stated in the Overview.
The film was released on September 25, 1921.
There is no mention of Chaplin being in the window. Sandison’s own studio was next door to the Liberty at 126 -½ W. Holly. So he was often hired to take the theatre’s PR photos.
This website had 2 J.W. Sandison photos of the Liberty Theatre. The famous 1921 shot of the Chaplin contest mentioned in the Overview. Plus a second photo from 1921 with D.W. Griffith’s “Dream Street” appearing at the Liberty.
The following description for the above photo courtesy of Frank Kiki Baltazar.
Carrier boys from the Herald-Express posed before the Beverly Canon Theatre after they saw a special showing of the motion picture, “Kon-Tiki,” as guests of producer Sol Lesser and the manager of the theater: July 20, 1958.
This link has a flyer for the Mickey Mouse Club meetings at the Fox Dome. The previous B&W photo in the other link is in dispute as to whether it is the Fox Dome or not.
Below is the website that details and article about the July 1936 showing of “Marihuana” at the Rialto. Photo of newspaper print ad added to Photos Section.
Luckily I just found the FB page they were originally on, via the rarely used Activity Log on FB. I’d forgotten I commented about Hair’s producer Michael Butler’s Chicago connection. I have downloaded them and re-posted them to the correct theater. Oddly they are the only 2 photos on that page. And only 10 comments.
CT has already deleted those photos. Unfortunately they did not post them to the correct page before doing so. And I am unable to find them in my files, because they had Facebook generated numbers that had 100 digits.
If I happen across them again, I will post them where they belong.
