The Saunders Family from Liberty Center Ohio are now the new owners of the Van-Dell Drive-In. They operate and own the Field of Dreams and Tiffin Drive-In.
The Theatre Catalogs assigned the drive-in to Delphos. George Christopher, Christoper Bros. were listed as the owner of the Starlite (capacity 350) in the 1948-49 edition. The 1949-50 edition had changed it to Staup Auto Theatre, capacity 300. By the 1952 edition, it was the Van Del, capacity 500.
Capacity numbers in the IMPAs jumped around from 350 to 536. The Van Del was listed in Delphos through 1984, then moved to Van Wert.
