“ROULETTE DRIVE-IN sat on the west edge of Roulette between the Potter County seat of Coudersport and Port Allegheny. It was built on the north side of US 6 in 1953, but ended up on the south side when the Route 6 bypass was completed north of Roulette. The Roulette was owned by Clifford Brown who also owned the Temple Theater in Kane, and was part owner of the Kane Family Drive-in until 1983, the year after he had closed the Roulette. John Margolies captured the original cinder block tower screen with its later Cinemascope extensions in this 1977 image.”
