Mike Rogers commented about Imperial Theatre on Jun 4, 2010 at 4:26 pm

No, we had no agreements.However,there was a small place that the managers could usually park.The Fire department gave us a break.Alot of the employees at the Imperial,as well I bet in St.Louis and Nashville used the city bus.Otherwise you took a quick break and fed the parking metters.

This town had three Drive-ins . Airport Drive-in,STAR Drive-in and Midway Drive-in. The Star Drive-in parked 315 cars making it Galax’s largest Drive-in. It was owned by C.W.Curtis who also owned the Midway Drive-in.

Bob,my info came from 1956 Motion Picture Almanac so it probably changed hands through the years.

SiliconSam. That is it I have a picture of it in my Drive-in photo Album.I don’t think CT would print it because of the word spelt.I should have taken the time to remove it,It wasn’t a very dirty word.but refered to Gays. F—s.

You would have to go and dig around in the various places in town.There might even be a book on old Buildings in Nashville at the local bookstore.I know Augusta has several regional books that shows a lot of the old city and that includes the long lost movie theatres here.Give Borders a try I know a city the size of Nashville has such a book. Take it easy.mike.

Why would someone take a picture of the back of the 20 plex.I got a feeling it looks like our Regal 20 here in Augusta.

Mike Rogers commented about Sarratt Cinema on Jun 1, 2010 at 1:49 pm

If that is the case then i could add the Tate Center at UGA in Athens,but I don’t consider it a movie theatre even though they show movies DVD i am sure.Can’t add the Tate Center.
