The State Theater was built during 1942 by the T.J. Murphy Company of Bowling Green, Kentucky for J.M. Hobbs, president of the Kentucky Amusement Company, at an estimated cost of $100,000. Initially managed and operated by Bob Enoch under a lease agreement, it spent most of its time as a movie theater. Facing Dixie Highway, the State Theater stands out among surviving examples of Art Deco architecture in Hardin County. Its exterior features a standard bond pattern brick construction, a defining feature of its era. Distinctive characteristics include its large marquee and neon signage, complemented by a stepped roof parapet, which were common to the Art Deco style prevalent in the late 1930s and early 1940s. With only 535 polygons, this building represents a notable architectural achievement.
