When 20th Century-Fox opened its Fox Wilshire Theatre at 8440 Wilshire Blvd in September 1930, it was at the height of the Art Deco era, as evidenced by this stunning proscenium curtain covering the screen—not to mention the surrounding decoration. Thankfully, most of it is still in place. In 1981, the place became a live theater venue and is now known as the Saban.
The Fox Wilshire Theater opened on September 19th, 1930 with “Animal Crackers” starring the Marx Brothers.
I understand that the original color scheme was black, silver and coral.
