Well folks, it’s no question you found a drive-in. I don’t know if I would say it was at the north end of 138 or not, it could be, or could not be the Blue Hills??
It would be great if someone could find an exact address, photos, and more info!
It held 800 autos.
It was open from ABOUT 1969-1995? I know it was open in 1967.
In 1975 it was owned by Hallmark Releasing Corporation?
From 1990-1995 it was owned by Melrose Associates Incorporated?
The address does not work very well. The way I understand it, the theater faced Central Street and it’s back was to Franklin Street. Because the two streets are closest at Hamond Street, I would guess it was fairly close to that street?
Any help with an address, photos or info would be great!
After World War II the Military had thousands of surplus Quonset Huts and was selling them to anyone for $1,000. That is no doubt why so many Quonset Hut theaters showed up.
They were “invented” at the Davisville Naval Construction Battalion (=C.B.=Seabees get it?) Center, at QUONSET Point, Rhode Island. I landed and took off from the now closed U.S. Naval Air Station Quonset Point (now called Quonset State Airport).
102 years ago, thanks again Don.
Thanks Don.
In the summer movies are only shown in the afternoon, the rest of the year in the evening.

Why is it called a QUONSET Hut?
They were “invented” at the Davisville Naval Construction Battalion (=C.B.=Seabees get it?) Center, at QUONSET Point, Rhode Island. I landed and took off from the now closed U.S. Naval Air Station Quonset Point (now called Quonset State Airport).

Thanks, SilconSam!
Hope the theater and area gets saved. As time goes by, if anyone hears anything let us know.

I know it was closed by 1967.
Your best bet to see the theater is to click on the map and then click on the address on the left.
Anyone have any other photos?
“got address & photos?”
I found that it was open from ABOUT 1950-1975? I know for sure it was open in 1967.
CORRECT NAME IS:
pineS.
Anyone have photos or an address?
I THINK it opened ABOUT 1950?
It was still open in 1967 and was still owned by Martin Theaters of Georgia and Alabama, Incorpoated of Columbus, Georgia.
I understand that the Interstate Hiway System first started in Tifton.
It was not open in 1967.
Tifton is the home of AGRIRAMA, which has nothing to do with CINERAMA. It is a Museum of Agriculture.
“got milk?” “got address?” “got photos?”
