Rebirth of The Capri Theatre Sign

 From a Montgomery Advertiser story:

 

(While work was underway this year)

"When the new marquee finally lights up Thursday, April 3 at the Capri Theatre, it'll be a sight many in Montgomery — at least those here prior to 1962 — never thought they'd see again.

"We haven't flipped the switch yet, so we haven't seen what it actually looks like at night," said Capri director Martin McCaffery. He's never seen the Clover lights either, since McCaffery has only been with the theater for 40 years.

 

The marquee lights will turn on sometime between 6:45 and 7 p.m. on April 3rd.

With it's tower, clover logo, dual signs and new standing "CAPRI" letters, the new marquee already stands out in daylight hours at 1045 E. Fairview Ave. The design is remarkably similar to one that was in place for just over 20 years, from when the theater first opened as the Clover Theatre in 1941... "
