Robin. Please put the pictures i am sending you on CT. I also have THE HILLTOP, DANIEL VILLAGE and MILLER too. I have the picture you put on framed from the Imperial.
I am mailing you some theatre items for you.Try and get them in the mail mOnday.You worked for STOREY THEATRES too. Surprized you didn’t hook on with REGAL or GEORGIA THEATRES.
I thought it was much newer but i am 95% sure i saw “WILLARD” and “WHO SLEW AUNTIE RUE” there in the early 70’s. Thanks Jack for getting me here. Sure thought it was built later than 1955.
By bad do you mean what Ray was saying Mold growing everywhere.I saw a few movies there and watching what few films i saw the picture and sound were good as any theatre i had seen movies in.
SMOKEY TRAILS is the last movie to play there before the fire that night.The last Box office take was 220.60. all these figures could iinclude the concession. It was not broken down in the Ledger book i found.
The Dreamland burned and never reopened even though the theatre itself was not torn down for a year.

I have several newspaper movie ads i clipped out of the paper there the MANRING ran some pretty nice ads.Boy,the ROSA DRIVE-In really looked like a great place to see a movie like the ALAMO.

I know he really didnot want to fire me.I know he didn’t because of all the managers under him he knew i would trek down to the Imperial when noone else would.
Thank you Jack Coursey.i left a post on another Wheaton area theatre about the Aspen Hill Twin months ago trying to find it, thanks for the time. I also went to a drive in around there called the QUEENS DRIVE-In or something like that,Does that ring a bell since i have you on CT figured i would ask.
Movies I saw ZEPPLIN with Michael York. WHEN DINOS RULED THE EARTH [sexy cavegirls] but rated G and the final movie i ever saw before going back to Georgia was THE OMEGA MAN with Charlton Heston. I still have the flyer they gave away at the Concession. THANKS FOR A GREAT THEATRE.Flyer from THE OMEGA MAN WAS like a newspaper,
I spent a few weeks in Wheaton with my cousins.They were a bit older so i found the Aspen Hill twin Cinema.Being from Augusta We had not gotten our first Twin theatre so i was excited to go to the theatre. I remember a record store nearby.
I think you will really like CT when you get to talking with other theatre people from around the world.and It will happen.one of them will come across usually a crazy story and comment.Most likely,“HEY,Robin that happened here but on a different night!”
Jack, Can you help me.Back in the early 70’s i spent a few weeks in Wheaton and would go to a twin theatre called i think the ASPEN HILLS Twin Theatre does that sense. I am hoping you might be a native there and remember movies there in the 70’s. i saw “OMEGA MAN” there among others, Thanks.
