This drive-in is featured in the February 16, 1970 issue of ‘Boxoffice’ magazine (the Astro Drive-In is also featured). It was, at the time, a state-of the-art facility and the centerpiece of a revitalized community.

Cool Marquee.
Approx. address for this drive-in was 2221 North Jackson Street. Now Regal Tullahoma 8.
Some parts of the ramps are still visible north of the theatre.
Oh my goodness! I never thought I’d see that marquee again! I didn’t realize it lasted that long. It was a cool place. Very “mod” for it’s day. The other alternative was the “Arnold” drive-in which was horrible. I think we had one more here in town in the early 50’s on the new Manchester Highway out by the old “Blue Top Motel”. They used to use the underneath side of the screen to store hay.
I don’t know about a “revitalized community.” At the time it was way out in the boondocks. But it was big and it was neat. But I could have sworn it was gone before I was in high school. Interesting that shot from 82.
