Notes

2005-01-08 - Information identifying this instrument from the Austin Organs, Inc. web site, accessed December 31, 2004: http://www.austinorgans.com/organ-research.htm. -Database Manager

2014-07-11 - The theater was apparently owned by Doan, but franchised as the Loew's Euclid Theater. -Database Manager

2023-03-23 - From cinematreasures.org: The 1320-seat Doan Theatre opened in around 1919 and closed in the early-1950’s. It had difficulty competing with the larger and more opulent Uptown Theatre, which was also operated by Warner Bros. located across the street and down a block from the Doan Theatre at 10515 St. Clair Avenue. The Doan Theatre did have a balcony and a full stage that was once used for vaudeville shows. -Jeff Scofield
