I do not see any evidence of a marquee, even in the historic aerial photos from 1963 or 1969 when the drive-in existed. A lack of a separate marquee for a drive-in is not all that unusual as the back of the screen often held the marquee.

All I see is a billboard on the NW side of the parking lot that didn’t show up until the 1991 aerial, long after the drive-in was closed and demolished.

A closer address (at least for Google) is 17910 79 ½ St SE, Wahpeton, ND. A business currently sits on the property with no trace of the drive-in remaining. http://tinyurl.com/hnesb6w
