The 1923 Sanborn map of Cedartown shows that the movie house that was at 513 S. Main St. in 1915 has been expanded to include 515 S. Main as well. It is also the only movie house on the 1923 map, so there’s no doubt it was the Palace, which was mentioned frequently in trade journals during the early 1920s.
The 1914-1915 American Motion Picture Directory lists two movie houses at Cedartown, with no details for either. They were the Palace and a house called the Elite. An August, 1915 Sanborn map of Cedartown shows only one movie house, that being at 513 S. Main Street. As the Palace continued in operation for many years and the Elite vanished, I think we can safely assume that the theater at 513 S. Main was the Palace.
It wasn’t me.
They put the seat number in after you provided it. Thanks for that information.
