452 Main St.

National Register 7/12/1993, 5DT.431

"The Depression era motion picture theatrical promotion know as "Bank Night" began in Delta’s Egyptian Theater. Created by Charles Yaeger to stimulate lagging theater attendance, the first Bank Night occurred at the Egyptian Theater in March of 1933. Within four years the promotion, in which cash prizes were awarded to theater patrons, spread to movie theaters across America. A 1996 restoration project returned the Egyptian to its 1928 appearance as designed by Denver architect Montana Fallis. Egyptian Revival architecture experienced a brief period of popularity in the 1920s, particularly in movie theater construction"--Description from the History Colorado website.
