They were a big attraction back in 1950's and 60's.

  4. That bring back memories.

    I loved the snackbar also. I loved that fishwich smothered in Mayo on a huge bun
    and fries and back then I drank real coke. Great shots Andy.

  5. Oh wow! These are fantastic..what a treat. I'm a big fan of all things Americana, and drive in theaters are right up there..also very hard to find anymore.

  6. Oh wow, I love the idea that the employees here might've locked up behind them and left everything as is, 50s movie signs and all. Drive-ins are such a rarity now.

  9. Ooh -- does that ever bring back memories. I don't recognize the movie titles (but don't go all that often nowadays )...but is it still open? That would be awesome.

  12. At first glance I thought the first one was a hot dog and bun! Then I looked closer and saw it was a horse! Obviously this is still open since they are new movies. Pretty cool!

  14. Love drive-in movie theaters, and this is a good one. Nothing wrong with showing old films. Fun photos that spark the imagination.

  16. andy...we have a drive in here which has been a HUGE hit for years. last year they got enough money thru donation and the like to go digital...at least I think that is what it is. these signs are so cool. ours is pretty generic. what do you mean that the camera makes changes to the SOOC?
