Definitely a great group of photos. And sad as well. We have two great old theaters there in Columbus, OH that have been restored. I'm sure for every 2 old theaters that are saved, many others are lost.
On a purely selfish note, it would be interesting to look in those abanded theater's nooks and crannies for any long lost Dracula posters.

It's a fabulous gallery of photos. Every member will enjoy it. At least I think they will. It's significant that two members came up with the idea of posting this to MOPO. Because it's truly an arresting series of photos.
