Rex Theatre: 1937
The mouths of babes..
My grand-daughter saw one of these photos and asked me, 'Gran-pa, did people used to come in different colors?', I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Wrong Year?
The movies on the playbills would mark the year as 1935, not 1937.
[That's because the movies are two years old. Not exactly a first-run house. - Dave]
Tarzan
It's interesting that the main feature is a Tarzan movie - these were pretty racist, showing the "superior" white man among the "primitive" natives. This story is set in Guatemala, not Africa, so Lord Greystoke gets to show his stuff on a different continent.
