The June 26, 1954 issue of Boxoffice included an article about the Liberty Kiwanis club using the Claco for an after-graduation party for Liberty High School. The author called it the “Cisco,” but there was no mistaking which drive-in he was talking about. “The theatre gave each girl a Cisco the Clown pin - a lovely red, white and gold brooch-type pin featuring the drive-in’s trademark insignia, the clown.”
Boxoffice, Sept. 8, 1956: “George Baker of Baker Enterprises took over the operation of the Claco Drive-In on September 1. Built and operated by Consolidated Theatres, the drive-in on Highway 10 off U. S. 69 north of town has been promoted by a neon sign of Claco, the clown, which shows up for miles.”
Appears to have ceased operations June 22, 1975 with “W.W. and the Dixie Dancekings.”
This opened on September 17th, 1953. Grand opening ad in the photo section.
