Abstract

Approximately 608 3×4.5 black & white snapshots mounted on 5×8 cardstock reports on theatres throughout

New England theatres.

Background Information

In the 1940s employees of MGM conducted a survey of theatres throughout New England. Data was collected

and typed on a series of 5x8” pre-printed form cards. The information collected included name and location of

theatre, date recorded, street address, city population according to the 1940 census, competing theatres, if they

are affiliated with MGM and are showing MGM movies, when the theatre was built (approximately) the

condition, seating capacity, the type of patronage, and if there was a balcony for non-white patrons. In addition

to this information a 3x4.5 photograph was taken of the theatre’s exterior and affixed to the form.

Scope and Contents Note

The collection consists of 608 cards organized alphabetically by geographic area with the exception of a few

late editions at the end of the collections. The states surveyed include Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire,

Rhode Island, and Vermont. The surveys document theatres in large and small markets and include a number of

Drive-In theatres. Not every report card includes a photograph.

It is unknown how many additional report cards exist, but the holdings in the THS archive do not represent a

complete inventory of the reports.

Other materials in the Theatre Historical Society holdings may relate to the topics in this archive.
