 The Strand Theatre was torn down years ago, with the site now more or less a traffic island / intersection. I was able to get some pictures of the theatre ( seen above ) from  back in the 1970's.  A few old ads for the theatre are seen both above and below, as well as a old ticket for the theatre. The Strand was one of Cumberland's largest movie houses, seating up to 1,400, complete with a stage and a balcony. In the early days, a dance hall was located behind the Strand, that later getting torn down and replaced by a post office. Other downtown Cumberland theatres, include the Maryland, Liberty, and Embassy.
