Carthay Circle Theatre - a photo on Flickriver

Postmarked March 2, 1942

The Carthay Circle Theatre was built in 1926 as part of the West Coast chain, which soon merged with Fox to form Fox West Coast Theaters. The theater's name comes from the circular shape of its auditorium and the Carthay development in which it was built. Carthay is based on the name of developer J. Harvey McCarthy. As illustrated in this card the theater hosted many movie premiers, famously including Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Due to that fact, Disney has built a reconstruction of the theater at its California Adventure park. Photos of the reconstruction can be found all over flickr. The theater was demolished in 1969.
