Boxoffice, June 18, 1965: “INDIO, CALIF. - Robert L. Lippert, E. Van Gortel and the Indio Co., owners of the Aladdin and Desert theatres and the Indio Drive-In here, have purchased three additional theatres in Blythe … Van Gortel, spokesman for the local company, said two indoor houses and a drive-in were acquired from Bob Dunnigan, owner of the Blythe properties since 1933.”
The site has now been completely cleared and looks like its now farm land? Nothing at all now remains.
The address listed is incorrect.
The address for this Drive-in is 12200 W Hobsonway, Blythe, CA 92225. This is at S Defrain Blvd not Main Street.
The screen base is still there. Most ramps are still visible.
Please update.
Here are some photos of the Rancho Verde:
