Information for this tour was contributed by Chuck McLaughlin. The Bijou Theatre, as it was known in the 1920s and 1930s, was owned and operated by the Hipple family, who also later owned The Capitol Journal newspaper. In the 1940s, it was remolded into the State Theatre, and was operated by the State Theatre Company. The principals of the company were Leo Peterson and Burt Johnson. Later, Leo's son, Dan Peterson, took over the circuit. Two of the theater's managers were Ken Peters and Doug Martin.
