Notes:

Photo by General Reproduction Co., Philadelphia, Negative no. 11562, of architectural drawings by Hoffman - Henon Co.

Hoffman - Henon commission no. 490. Front elevation, proposed theatre.

Glazer, Philadelphia theatres, A-Z, gives location, with original architect as John D. Allen, in 1914, but states that the 1926 alternations were by Hodgens & Hill. This would suggest that the Hoffman - Henon image is a proposal drawing, but not accepted.
