After the closure of Grand Theatre, which showed silent films until 1931, the Naper Theatre took its place in downtown Naperville in 1935 and remained in business until 1977. Today, its location at 34 W. Jefferson Ave. is owned by Naperville Running Company. This photo was taken in 1974, when Mel Brooks’ comedy “Blazing Saddles” was showing.
