  • <p>April 12, 1949 grand opening ad for the Pampa launching with “River Lady”</p>
  • <p>It’s June 23, 1950 and time for the Top o' Texas Drive-in Theatre to open. They launched with the film, “Bagdad”</p>
  • <p>August 6 1965</p>
  • <p>The Surf was our home, for awhile, back in 1955. My dad managed the Surf and the Twin Palms Drive-in. This is a frame grab from 8mm footage he shot while we were living there–inside the theater screen! You can barely discern the cartoon images that graced the front of the screen.</p>
