Fred Lynch retired in 2018 after capturing images for the Southeast Missourian since 1975, in that time moving from black-and-white to color, from film to digital and to video. The blog title is a nod to an earlier era of news photography and the 4x5 Speed Graphic: It's more important to be there for the shot than to worry about technical details.

Park Theater 1919

Posted Friday, December 13, 2013, at 12:00 AM

The Naeter Brothers, owners of the Southeast Missourian, had Park Theater constructed in 1914 at 213 Broadway. It was sold to E.M. Doyle and J.H. Strain in 1917. Fox West Theaters bought it in 1929, renaming it the Fox Cape Theater. It closed in 1931.

The Salvation Army purchased the building in 1949. It was razed in the 1980s. (photo circa 1919)
