Found it! Something looking very much like a defunct drive-in sat just where the auction ad described it. The drive-in was pretty obvious in a 1993 aerial, and you can still see the property outline today at what Google Maps calls an Unnamed Road about a half mile north of Middleton / Thompson West Road on the east side of US 27 just a bit south of the Colquitt city limits. The closest address that I could generate on Google Maps was 824 Martha Berry Highway, Colquitt, GA.
Moultrie is Colquitt County and Colquitt is in Miller County. The Hunter theatre is located in downtown Colquitt. This drive in was located on highway 27 south of Colquitt. The only remains is the boxoffice and you have to be looking for it. Out front there is a mailbox mounted on a tall pole with the words Airmail printed on it.
I grew up in Moultrie and never heard anything about a Drive In by this name. I think it is listed in the wrong city.
According to RAND McNALLY the populations of the towns are:
COLQUITT 1,889
MOULTRIE 14,913
Couldn’t find anything about a Phillips Drive-In in either town?
