According to an April 17, 1961 note in Boxoffice, that’s about when Jim Fraser bought the Red Wing from Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Spiess. Fraser had been a projectionist at a Rapid River MN drive-in and planned to start showing first-run movies at the Red Wing. The note placed the drive-in on US 61 in Wacouta, just east of Red Wing.

“Mr. and Mrs. Spiess, who opened the Red Wing Drive-In in 1955 after operating an indoor theatre in Glenwood City, Wis., plan to move to the west coast on account of his health.”
