Several paper movie posters were found in the attic above one of the organ pipe chambers.  They were in very poor condition.  Three partial newspapers from December 1924 were found with them.

These cardbard posters were found in one of the organ pipe chambers with a newspaper from January 1930.  "Close Harmony" was made in 1929. This was the beginning of the "talkie" era so to "Hear Him Sing and Play" was a big deal.  These posters appear to be handpainted but the picture was glued on, probably from a paper poster.
