The old State theatre marquis has been a part of the Uptown Westerville landscape for decades.
The City of Westerville's new fall lamppost banners are brightening Uptown Westerville with autumn colors and Uptown images, including... the historic home of Amish Originals Furniture Co. since 1992: the old State theatre at 8 N. State.
From the Local History Archives of the Westerville Public Library:
The State Theatre circa 1951.
Uptown Westerville in 1966 - Coming Soon: Mary Poppins, My Fair Lady, The Great Race. First run ticket prices in 1966... 50 cents!
In the 1970s into the 1980s, the State movie theatre closed and the theatre was repurposed to become the home of The Clothes Show (formerly The Last Straw, located on the west side of State).
In 1992, a new idea: a store featuring made-to-order, made-in-Ohio by skilled Amish-craftsmen solid wood furniture - Amish Originals Furniture Co.
