Loew's State

 Today is the 105th anniversary of the opening of Loew's State Theatre.

Loew's State auditorium, circa 1923. Theatre Historical Society photo.

Funny how I never hear from my "friends" at the theatres unless they want something from me. Although I enjoy the snarky anonymous comments, often making wildly untrue allegations. Sometimes people don't like what I have to say, but they know it's me saying it, I don't hide behind anonymity like a coward.

Liberty Tax Service

 Liberty Tax Service, 6424 Detroit Avenue last month. Always remember going past the one in Plains on my way back from Wilkes-Barre, they always had someone dressed up like the Statue of Liberty out front.
