Whyte Bedford of the Marion Theatre launched the Ford Drive-In Theatre on August 13, 1953 with “Thunderbirds.” The Drive-In likely closed after the 1958 season as ads are discontinued.

Was still standing in 1981 with screen, long time to be closed before demolition. The lot is now vacant and for sale.
