A couple weekends ago I took a little trip to my hometown...San Jose. I hadn't been there in four years, and even then I was just passing through on a Bay Area college campus tour I gave my younger cousins. My parents retired a while back and moved off to Clovis, so the SJ chapter in my life had come to a close...at least I thought.Of course I had to feed my Gould obsession by taking a look at the remains. Kinda painful to the eye, but here are some shots looking in from the cobwebbed window. Yes, that's a jar of giant pickles you see...

I'm from the Bay Area and help run a website devoted to cinemas and I had NO IDEA this place existed. I am floored!
Mind if I put your pics up on our website?

Sure! Let the world know about this filthy place!
Thank you!
Like you SJ is my hometown and it was closed in 94, but I still remember watching movies here as a kid. Truly a special place and a coming of age place for a lot of us in the hood.
I remember watching goulies and there was a party scene and the disco ball in the theater would turn on, good times
