Brunson Theater - Baytown, Texas
The Brunson Theater opened in 1949 and closed in 1983. After sitting vacant for 35 years, and losing its roof and entire art deco interior, the old theater reopened in 2019 as the Baytown Visitor Information Center. The sign pictured here is the original, missing of course many vital pieces and sporting a fresh coat of paint. The old sign has been replaced with a 50 foot reproduction. Amazingly, the original bas relief artwork on the facade survived intact. Baytown, Texas. 5.11.2016.
