View from in front of the Mt Airy Theatre at the Town, 2 blocks away.

  In 1931, the Film Daily listed Ringler's as the town theatre, seating 350. By 1938, it was listed as the Mt Airy, and was listed through 1952, seating between 190 and 352 people. There was another Ringler's Theatre listed in the FDA in 1931 ,  in Bishopsville on the Eastern Shore, which makes me suspect a typo on the part of the FDA.  (Just a possibility ...... ) We recently checked a 1930 copy of the Mount Airy paper " The Community Reporter ", but for that year,  we could find no ads or theatre references.We'll continue to dig........
