Photograph article dated August 3, 1949 partially reads, "The new Encino theater, 16342 Ventura Blvd., will open next Wednesday, Aug. 10. Highlight of program arrangements of the new theater will be its one-feature policy. "Our policy is to comply with public demand for single attraction shows," Howard Goldenson, manager, said. "We are arranging our program so that there will be two hours of entertainment nightly, including the feature, a short and a newsreel"... The 1000 seats in the theater are staggered to provide clear views of the screen from every chair. There is only one admission price."
