Rather than a photograph or poster, this item is an ink drawing of the Aldine theater on Market Street near 8th Street in Wilmington, Delaware, dated 1930. The record gives it as the Aldine Vaudeville theater, a reminder that many houses of this kind were built for live stage acts before sound film took over their programs. Architectural drawings like this one documented a building's construction, alterations, or layout, and they show how a local theater's seating, stage, and lobby were arranged in the years when movie houses were becoming the center of city entertainment.
