(Flagstaff) Arizona Daily Sun, June 20, 1980: “BISBEE - a Cochise County grand jury has returned indictments in connection with the showing of sexually-oriented films by a Douglas drive-in theater. The indictments named Spring-Wick Corp. of Phoenix, owners Tom Springer and Bruce Wicks, and Hector Delgadillo of Douglas, manager of the Fort Apache Drive-In. They were charged with public display of explicit sexual materials. The indictments Thursday stemmed from the showing of two X-rated films, "Screwpies” and “The Coming of Angels.”

Approximate address is actually 2083 Naco Hwy, Bisbee. Remains of the ramps can still be seen along with the partial foundation of the concession building and what appears to be the screen base. Site is vacant and for sale, see link of the listing below:

I found a ticket stub in the glove box of my 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner when I purchased it in 1999. Anybody know when it closed?

I hope “FORT APACHE” was shown there.
