Description

This is a photograph of Benicia during a snowstorm in 1921. It was taken in front of the Majestic Theater with kids and adults walking and playing. The movie at the Majestic is "Lost Romance" and there is a sign near the corner advertising "Kodaks" (this is probably at Hoffman's Drug store later changed to O'Grady's drug store). The Lost Romance is a surviving 1921 American silent drama film directed by William C. deMille and starring Jack Holt and Lois Wilson. It was produced by Famous Players-Lasky and distributed by Paramount Pictures.
