Drawn in ink on paper in 1926, this architectural record documents the New Lyceum theater, also known as Albough's theater, on North Charles Street near West Biddle Street in Baltimore. Its subject tags place it among the city's theaters and motion picture houses of the 1920s, a period when silent films drew large audiences and many playhouses were remodeled to show movies. Drawings of this type generally record a building's structure and layout at a specific moment, which makes them useful for understanding how the theater was built and arranged. Engineering drawings like this one help historians trace how Baltimore's entertainment district changed during the decade.
