Boxoffice, June 30, 1951: “The Tahoe Drive-In Theatre at Stateline on the California-Nevada border has reopened for the season with the melting of the last snow from roads and resorts. New policy will be to play concurrently with downtown San Francisco runs. Several acres of pine forest have been added to the theatre grounds and new entertainment features this year will include horseback rides before the show, starting from Jack’s Ranch stables. There are also picnic grounds on the theatre property. Theatre was readied for the season with new paint at the entrance and snack bar. New intermission patio was constructed with an open fireplace where hot dogs and toasted marshmallows can be enjoyed.”
various businesses and a Marriot hotel…
Is there anything now on the original drive-in theatre site?
As is often the case when an indoor movie house occupies a drive-in site - they had the same owners.
Boxoffice, Aug. 24, 1970: “The Stateline Cinema, this area’s newest theatre, has been opened in the Crescent Valley Shopping Center Annex by Robert Retzer and William Tomlinson, who jointly own the Tahoe Drive-In.”
