Here's a 1950s view of the Paramount Theatre on Public Square in Wilkes-Barre, PA. The Paramount has been refurbished to most of its Art-Deco splendor, and has become renamed The Kirby Center.
It's unfortunate that the original marquee seen in the picture could not be saved, it has been replaced by an anachronistic LED rolling graphic sign. Well, the inside and 99% of the exterior are still true to their original designs.
If you get a chance, see an event, or take a tour in this beauty..when the COVID-19 crisis ends, of course.......
