This opened on June 24th, 1954. Grand opening ad in the photo section. No listings after 1975.
A more accurate address for this theater is 1405 4th Ave NW, Ardmore, OK 73401. This points directly to the entrance road.
Please update.
A 1962 aerial photo shows the entrance road connecting directly to HWY 77 (hence the name). But sometime between 1965 and 1974 4th Street NW was added which cut through the original entrance road.
Using Google Earth it’s still possible to see the curved rows of mounds using the address from the above comments.
