Founded in 1907, the Robey Theatre at 318 Main Street was a vaudeville/opera house before it began showing silent films in 1908.  Hamond H. Robey's theatre immediately became a popular attraction in town.  Today, Robey Theatre is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Theater continues to operate as a movie house, noted as the oldest continuously operated movie theater in the Unite States.
A special plaque created by the U.S. Dept. of Interior and purchased by the R.C.H.S. notes its place in U. S. and Spencer's history.

The Traders Trust & Banking Co. building is a 4-story brick and stone structure.  Built in about 1902, the bank's name is found on both the Main and Market Street sides of the building.
(Since the plaques are identical except for the names and dates, I will not post each plaque with the building photo).
