First Keystone Federal “The Tower”,
painted by celebrated artist George Rothacker features the movie “Town
Without Pity” on its marquee with headlights of the cars of the
‘60s brightening the streets. Mr. Rothacker, who has painted a
collection of landmark theaters including the Media
Theater and the Anthony Wayne in
Delaware County, grew up in Upper Darby and lived on Richfield Road
less than a block from the Tower. “I spent many days and evenings
watching movies in the Tower as a teenager,” said Mr. Rothacker.
“My graduation from Upper Darby High School was held at the Tower
because of its size. We were the largest class of baby boomers, and
I believe the theater was then used for years by the high school to
house similar ceremonies.” |
