An open letter to Cleveland.

An open letter to Cleveland.
Warner's Lake Theater opened on Christmas Day 1930 as "a veritable bandbox." The occasion was announced the day before in a published letter to city manager Daniel E. Morgan, in which Warner Brothers took "cognizance of the healthy trinity" of "Responsibility, Development, and Happiness" in Cleveland and offered the Lake Theater as its first contribution to the "further attainment of these ideas and ideals." Warner Brothers pledged further innovations to the city of Cleveland, beginning with the "convenience" of playing the same movie simultaneously at the company's three local cinemas: the Lake Theater in Playhouse Square, the Uptown Theater at St. Clair and East 106th Street, and the Variety Theater at Lorain Avenue and West 118th Street. | Source: Plain Dealer, December 24, 1930, page 16.
