This site has 12 pages of old photos but I do not see the opera house. But it does sell photo if you are interested. http://www.muhlenbergcountyky.com/ _____ From: KYMUHLEN-D-request@rootsweb.com [mailto:KYMUHLEN-D-request@rootsweb.com] Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2005 4:00 AM To: KYMUHLEN-D@rootsweb.com Subject: KYMUHLEN-D Digest V05 #44

I bought the CD`s that the Muhlenberg Library was selling. The CD`s contained over 10,000 photos of Muhlenberg County.I checked all the pre 1960 photos and could not find a " Martwick Opera House "I found several photos of " Martwick mine " and the " Martwick minecompany store " but no opera house.If one lived near the Muhlenberg county library they might check there.I live in extreme northeast California so I have my brother Bill [ who lives in Central City ] do my digging.

There is a "Gish Opera House" at the bottom of page two. Could that be it? Someone told me, years ago, that the old State Theater, that burned down in 1964, give or take a year or two, had once been an opera house. I do remember that it had an orchestra pit just below the front of the stage, and a brass railing to keep people from falling down into it. I hope this has been of some help to you.....
