Boxoffice, Aug. 4, 1958: “Lightning struck the projection booth and screen at Lamont’s Vail Mills Drive-In, between Amsterdam and Gloversville, during a recent Saturday evening show … Harry Witzke, projectionist, was unharmed and continued the showing.”
Opened with “Cheyenne”. 700 cars. Closed in 1989. Snack bar used as a storage facility. The rest of the site is Paradise Mobile Homes. The marquee is still there.
