Photograph is from the late 1800s when an unlettered canopy was added to the exterior of the Fulton Opera House. |
This photo from 1963 shows the Fulton as it was showing the film "The Night." At the time it was owned by the Coho family, but was then purchased by the non-profit Fulton Opera House Foundation. |
This photo taken by Lori Stahl is from 1995 after a $9,500,000 renovation was complete. |
