Damaged by a fire on September 3, 1913.
First mention of the Majestic was on January 3rd, 1913. Article of the fire.
Majestic theatre - fire 05 Sep 1913, Fri The Frederick Leader (Frederick, Oklahoma) Newspapers.com
The building in the photo above is standing at 111-113 S. 9th Street. On the 1916 Sanborn map there is a garage at 113, but 111 is a vacant lot. On the 1924 Sanborn, the building has been expanded across both lots but is still occupied by a garage. I don’t think either side of the garage was ever a theater. The 1910 Sanborn shows a “Cheap Theatre” next door at 115, and I think that must have been the Majestic.
By 1916, 115 S. 9th was also serving as a garage. If the Majestic reopened after the 1913 fire, it might have been as the Electric Theatre, one of the only two houses listed at Frederick in the 1914-1915 AMPD (the other was the Gem, which is accounted for.) In any case, the house was definitely gone by 1916.
