These are just two of a few old style movie houses I've shot recently. Don't know what it is that grabs my attention. Is it the old neon? Is it the rat pack cool art deco? Could be. I remember as a kid going to the College Cinema in town. Saw Rocky, Superman, Animal House, Invasion of the Body Snatchers and many many other movies there as a youngster. Or the Angelica in Coaldale, saw King Kong '76 there and Grease more than once. It was always a fun time. These two have a bit in common, they were both cleaned up and restored in the 1990's. Maybe someone remembers some of the classics they saw there. The Capitol was built on South Main Street in Chambersburg in 1926 and the County was built in 1938 on East State Street in Doylestown, Pa.
I can also remember the movie threater in town. Lot of great movies and lots of fun. How about the drive in's in the area. Now your talking fun.
