I never saw a movie here, but I always liked the way the screen looked – I recently scanned an old photo I have of it. You can see it here:

Oh! Duh! Lost Memory has already posted it. Sorry for the repeat info… [talk about lost memory]
Originally, there was a large American Indian (with an arrow ready to be fired from his bow) underneath the name Mohawk on the back of the screen. This was a very difficult drive-in to sneak into!
The Mohawk drive-in parked 600 cars and was owned by Fabian Theatres in 1956.
