Palace Theatre (Canton, Ohio)

The Palace Theater is a historic movie palace in downtown Canton, Ohio, United States. Constructed during the heyday of the movie palace in the 1920s, it has been named a historic site.
Designed by John Eberson, a prominent architect specializing in movie palaces, the Palace is an atmospheric theater that opened in November 1926. Money for its construction was donated by a Canton industrialist, Harry Ink, whose firm became prosperous by producing "Tonseline", a medication for sore throats; the Tonseline logo was a giraffe with a bandaged throat,〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 2. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1294.〕 and such a giraffe was included in the interior design.〔Moore, Gay Morgan. ''(Canton )''. Charleston: Arcadia, 2009, 57.〕 In its early years, the Palace hosted a wide range of events: besides ordinary films, it hosted vaudeville performances and other stage productions, and numerous community events at the Palace placed it at the center of Canton society.〔
Built of brick with elements of terracotta,〔 the Palace is a rectangular Churrigueresque building with a garden-themed main auditorium; its ceiling features elements designed to convey the sense of night and dawn, together with numerous stars, and the auditorium has a capacity of 1,800 or more visitors.〔 The facade is divided into sections of varying width, two on each side of a vertical sign rising above the rest of the building; all sections rise to numerous pinnacles. A central marquee shelters the zone under the vertical sign and beneath the two sections adjacent to the sign. Windows are placed near the base of the two sections on the sides of the facade.〔(Palace Theater ), Ohio Historical Society, 2007. Accessed 2010-02-18.〕
The Palace was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, qualifying both because of its architecture and because of its place in community history.〔 Its historic status has been employed during events such as a 2012 fundraiser, during which its operators sought to raise more than $1 million to fund improvements to its utilities and its facade.〔Porter, Akilah. "(Canton Palace Theatre's Transformation ), WKSU-FM, 2012-11-19. Accessed 2015-01-03.〕 Besides ordinary theater events, the Palace has hosted ghost hunters seeking the spirit of a young woman who was murdered in the theater in the 1930s.〔"(Ghost Hunters to Converge on Palace Theatre )", ''The Repository'', 2011-09-28. Accessed 2015-01-03.〕
