Land-Going “Show Boat” or Mobile Movie Theater

Land-Going
Land-Going "Show-Boat"
We have not found much information about this unique motion picture theater, “McCall's on Parade”. In the MAY 28, 1934 issue of Automobile Industries, a weekly magazine, is this brief article about this mobile picture theater. Pulled by a Dodge 2 ton truck, we are curious if any one know anything about this unique vehicle or the trailer it pulled. Could it have survived? I know, it was 80 years ago!

Land-Going "Show-Boat"

"McCall's on Parade" - a sumptuously appointed elaborately equipped, air-conditioned, electrically lighted sound-picture theater on wheels.

It is transported from place to place by a Dodge 2-ton truck chassis acting as tractor. An interior view of the motorized theater is given in the inset.
