From the 'Turnback Tuesday' archives: Commodore Hull Theater in Derby

This week's "Turnback Tuesday" is a postcard, circa 1907-1915, that highlights the Commodore Hull Theater on Elizabeth Street.

It advertises Vaudeville plus 85 acts featuring silent movie star and Brooklyn-born Connie Talmadge. It appears the theater approaches the Elks Club with cars of the era parked in the foreground.

Thanks goes to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
