Opened with Walt Disney’s “The Love Bug” and the Disney featurette “The Alaskan Eskimo” plus a special in-person appearance by Sergeant Sacto of “Captain Detroit”, a local children’s television host from Kaiser Broadcasting independent station WKBD-TV (now a CW affiliate).
July 9th, 1969 grand opening ad in photo section.
The thrift store has since closed and the building is currently empty.
There are several pictures and comments here. It appears that the theater space has now been completely gutted out.

It spent the decade or so of the last part of its life as a $1 theatre.
