The article presents the author's experience with the Boyd Theater. It was originally built as the Seville, opening February 21, 1925. In 1933, it was rechristened The Boyd, and it was her favorite movie house as a child. The Boyd was in Easton, Pennsylvania, three miles from her home in Phillipsburg, New Jersey, right on the border. Saturday afternoons with $2 in their hands, her sister, Christine, and neighborhood friends, Jo Anne, Betty, and Diane, would walk down the Morris Street hill in Phillipsburg, cross the free bridge to Pennsylvania, and spend a day at The Boyd. |
