Feedback: Julia Ann story brings back memories of Rialto To ColumbiaMagazine.com The Julia Ann Pickett story brings back memories of the Rialto "picture show." I was very happy when, on Saturday afternoon, I had a quarter to attend movies like "Old Yeller." I think the admission price was 15 cents, and popcorn (served in a paper cone) and drinks were 5 cents each. The Rialto was owned by the F. X. Merkley family, and I believe it was located about where Wanda Hill's office is in the Bank of Columbia. I also remember when Saturday afternoon matinees at the Columbian Theater brought the chance of winning a Daniel Boone cap in a drawing. I was never lucky enough to win one, but looked forward to it each time I went, sometimes babysitting Jane Tucker Durham on these occasions. Thanks for the memories! s/Marsha Walker Thanks for those wonderful memories of the Rialto Theatre. A thought: Charles Marshall may have been running the Columbian in those days and may have a stash of Daniel Boone caps hidden away somewhere. Would that be nice? - ED Related: Raising Julia Ann Pickett was a full-time, full-town chore Old Photo Of Rialto Brings Back Memories For ManyHas two photos related to Rialto.
