Screen was destroyed as of April 2016, its scattered across the ramps. Probably blown down?
Boxoffice, Dec. 17, 1955: “Verne Lindholm, owner of the Ainsworth Theatre, has sold his holdings to Cecil See, effective immediately … Lindholm said he is keeping his interest in the new drive-in a mile east of Long Pine.”
The Pineview Drive-In launched May 19, 1955 with Gary Cooper in “Garden of Evil.“ Owner Dave Cole was open through 1997 but a wind storm ripped off part of the screen and - because of the expense of repairs - he did not reopen in 1998.
Grand opening was actually May 20th, it was advertised the day before but the actual opening was on the 20th.
