Oriental Theater, Milwaukee, 1929.
“This crowd lined up on Oct. 16, 1929 to see “The Greene Murder Case,” a well-reviewed mystery starring William Powell, Jean Arthur and Florence Eldridge … Designed by local architects Gustav Dick and Alex Bauer, this $1.5 million escape from mundane cares offered the theatergoer an incredible, dreamy pastiche of Moorish, Byzantine and East Indian themes.”
