The Eagle Rock Sentinel on August 6, 1910, reported the opening of the new Glendale Theatre, opposite the Sanitarium: “Moving pictures and illustrated songs of the classy order every evening except Sunday, doors open at 7 p m first performance 7:30 11 pm. second performance 8:45 p m. Matinees Saturday 2:30 p m. Amateurs night Friday. Come and see us and we will help you enjoy life. Admission 10c, Children 5c”.
“The very best and most scientific motion picture machine has been installed. The operating room is lined with asbestos and sheet iron, making it absolutely safe. The machine has been approved by the underwriters and is unanimously considered to be the best. J. Elgie Busch, proprietor and manager”.
Moving pictures were listed on Sanborn Maps 1912 at 704 E. Broadway with the Glendale Sanitarium across the street.
1919 Sanborn Maps lists a bottling Co at 704 E. Broadway.

The 1914-1915 American Motion Picture Directory still lists the Glendale Theatre at 704 4th Street (renamed Broadway in 1918) but also lists a second Glendale Theatre at 521 4th Street (this would have been on the block where the post office is now.) There were also houses called the Jewell City Theatre and the Majestic Theatre, with no addresses provided.
