Summary

[edit]
Description

The defunct Cameo Theatre on Broadway. It opened in October 1910 as Clune's Broadway Theatre, one of the first purpose-built 'picture playhouses' in the city, and the oldest surviving movie theatre on Broadway.

The 24-sheet billboard above it probably incorporates part of Clune's original electric rooftop sign, with a working digital clock that advertised 'THE TIME - THE PLACE - CLUNE'S BROADWAY'.

It was also the longest continually operating movie theatre in California, if not the USA. Clune's advertisements promising 'continuous performance' held true until December 1991.

You can see a colour postcard of the original interior halfway down this page.
