R         Roseland Theater (Flat River, Mo.).

1146                Photograph, 1940.

                                    One folder.

 

 

 

This is a black-and-white exterior view of the Roseland Theater at Flat River (now Park Hills) in St. Francois County, Missouri.  The photograph shows a crowd waiting to see The Grapes of Wrath.

 

This view is a 5” by 7” photographic print.  Although undated, both The Grapes of Wrath and a coming attraction, Young As You Feel, were released in 1940, so that date has been assigned to the photograph.  A cut-out Missouri-shaped marker for Highway 8 is visible, attached to the railing of the theater entrance.  The photographer and/or original owner of the image are unknown.
