This is not the Walter Brennan Rainbow Theatre. It isn’t listed on Cinema Treasures. Opened July 1950 and closed June 1953 in a dispute over rent payments due Brennan. No other information found as to what happened to the Rainbow Theatre in Joseph, OR.

Looking at Google Street View, I draw the conclusion the building in Ken’s tinyurl has been demolished.
