I’ve created a Facebook fansite for Coffee County’s Marshall Theatre, Arnold Drive-In and Manchester Drive-In. I’ve started by uploading scans of all my vintage show cards for these theatres. Go to my site below, then click the link to the Marshall Theatre site.

I was the First Christian Church Board Chair at the time the church bought the theater and eventually had the building razed. This was our only room to expand and still remain in the downtown area. The front was made like a tank with a lot of concrete. The marquee came down with just a light touch from a bulldozer. The back wall was only a brick thick and over two stories high. It crashed very quickly … it could have been a real safety issue. We certainly wished there was a way to have saved the classic structure. The movie rate structure eventually lead to it’s demise and the development of the multi theater Regal Cinema. I have saved a classic fire extinguisher and am looking for a picture of the theater for a plaque and brass inscription.
Jack….Take a look at this website. It has the Marshall Theater in Tullahoma still operating in 1986.
