I love it too. In fact, I got my own 1-sheet for LES GIRLS out of its
storage file as I hadn't looked at in for quite a while.

An older enthusiast like me found the photo fascinating. Those times were
really great and I miss the showmanship of the older independent theatres,
big and small! Thanks for posting this! Channing in San Francisco

Hi Folks,
As I was going through a bunch of old photographs today, I came across
the photo that is linked below. I remember someone on MOPO, some time ago,
asked if anyone could show how lobby cards were display in the theatre's
of old. Well, this is the Outer Lobby of the Colonial Theatre in Keene,
New Hampshire, It had marble floors and brass rails. Still up and
operating! My Dad took this picture of one of the people that worked for
him.
The left upper shows how the three sheet might be displayed (Les Girls).
The 2 portable displays could be used for one sheets or lobby cards;
usually one sheets except in this case. More importantly, the upper right
show a beautiful decor gold frame which held four lobby cards on each side
of a one sheet all separated by this gold frame. Jet Pilot is "Coming
Soon" The frame has locked doors. Why, I don't know.............No one
knew what we know; haha
Hope some of you younger enthusiasts find this interesting and helpful.
