I am going to bring my RED Managers jacket with was the same as the Doorman.Which i never could understand.At GCC our managers coats were a dark blue compared to the light blue doorman’s coat. Need to let Bill know i have the dangest time calling him.
No Just discussing theatres with Scott.He thought the CAPRI THEATRE h ere was first run movies,not the Triple X theatre it was.And Paul Revere and the Raiders weren’t that bad.“HUNGRY” was a pretty good song.
I was hoping Nick would print that picture and or the MODJESKA shot of the marquee being rippied down,but last time i checked he hasn’t. I think I mailed one to you.But you have done so much for NATIONAL HILLS and COLUMBIA 1and2. You are right about Bill,outside of Me ,I really don’t think there is anyone in this city that knows the history from,in my case 1974 to 1980 on theatres and Drive-ins. Bill Barkley’s Knowledge spans decades.
I know we never worked across the street,but wouldn’t mind having a MILLER shirt. I had a “SAVE THE MODJESKA” t-shirt from the late 70’s.Wish I would have saved it instead of wearing it. I had a graphic from a newspaper ad that wanted to have made into T-Shirts and give them away to our ABC/Plitt Theatre gang,but money got tight and I never went to check prices,but still have the ad with the IMPERIAL logo on it. You could print that group shot of our reunion last fall here on the IMPERIAL site. I am going to look for a few things to give to the FRIENDS OF THE MILLER. THings I saved from the Dumpster on Ellis Street.
If i recall correctly,Nick told me Regal opened a 20 plex for a couple of years before closing it.I think a lot of cities are overscreened no matter what the size of the city.
Ed if you have any Questions on the Downtown Theatres here,Bill Barkley is the only remaining Projectionist alive.I will be glad to pass Questions off to Him .He really enjoys your interest in the IMPERIAL.
TLSLOEWS,My home address is on CAPRI THEATRE site in Augusta.If you send me a letter with the Drive-ins you are interested in I will go to OFFICE MAX and make copies from the book. Or anything LOEWS related.
Yep, It parked 518 cars and in 1956 it was owned by S.J. Workman.

Walt Disney’s Re-release of “BAMBI” plays at DANIEL VILLAGE.
What about “THE HOUSE OF DARK SHADOWS” being released with this vampire craze,with the right ads it would be a money maker.
Dirty DOZEN and THE UNSINKABLE MOLLY BROWN. what a double feature.Can’t make it up.
Jackson,Ohio has a GROVEAUTO DRIVE-In parking 128 cars and owned by H.Stagmiller.
I plan on going.Hope Robin and maybe some of the gang will see the ad in the paper.Been wanting a MILLER T-Shirt.
Have no HOPE VALLEY DRIVE-IN listed or BOULEVARD DRIVE-In Listed in my 1956 Motion Picture Almanac. Shows Six Drive-ins in that city.
Yes,they are playing a Disney movie.Could be a new relaese or something years old.

This Philly area Drive-in parked 750 cars and was owned by Claude Schlanger as mentioned above in 1956.
Outside of Robin and Ray Hutto at SOUTHSIDE THEATRE in Augusta {on CT] I am the only one here and Robin really doesn’t get deep into the Histories.
