Maxbilt Theatre is a historic theater located at Fleischmanns, Delaware County, New York. It was built in 1929, and is a two-story, brick, concrete block, and stucco building. It measures 65 feet wide and 185 feet deep, and consists of three sections: a five-bay by three-bay main block, (housing the lobby, storefronts, projector rooms and apartments above), a large auditorium (housing the theater), and a one-story, rectangular concrete block rear section. It is an intact example of a small regional theater built during the heyday of the Catskills resort era.[2]: 5
