What’s with you and the marquees? Can’t we see the rest of the theater? Gee whiz.

Any information on a Central Drive-In near Stayton or Sublimity? It may have been open around 1950-55.

The Star is a gem! Beautiful little showcase with a great staff! The auditorium retains the charm that it had in it’s opening in 1949.
