Sage Drive-In

The Sage Drive-In was opened by 1953 when it was operated by Lee Welch. Shows up clearly on map images. Van Horn is a big town considering it’s miles from any significant population.

Absolutely it could be. I don’t have all the resources you guys have so I named it and hoped someone would come in and correct it.

There was another theatre in Van Horn. When I first passed through in the mid 90s the skeleton of it was still standing.
