Kscara,if you are still into CT since your last post was 2006.Louisa.Va. had the Tally Drive-in in the late 50’s.It parked just 200 cars and was owned by Independent Theatre Service.
Don’t know if the BOOKER Drive-in will get any more info than what I wrote,but anything would be great.One of the few Drive-ins in Augusta that no one really knows about.
You know i never throw any of your stuff away.don’t have to listen to Rochelle about my movietheatre basement anymore. Hey, I just submitted a bunch of area drive-ins to CT.Hopefully, they will pass inspection. You can see how in use my Journalism minor when you read all the added words to try and make a decent into like YOU do.
IT might be me but i hate read a one sentence intro on a new theatre.
I told you when my dad and me would stop in WASHINGTON,GA. at a hot dog stand,they had those same programs for the WILKES THEATRE in that city,{onCT} and i collected them too.Boy, would i love to have tose old programs. Well, not to brag,cause Tlsloews might read this, but on the program May 12-15 i have all three one sheets.“COLD TURKEY”,“HAWAIIANS”,and “TWO MULES FOR SISTER SARA” Why a Dick Van Dyke movie would play before Clint Eastwood is odd.Newer release?
I have an 8by10 still of “EYE OF THE CAT”.On Nov.25-28 have both of those one sheets,“BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES” and “SICILIAN CLAN” rather strange double feature. I have the “GOODBYE,COLUMBUS” one sheet in great condition.I notice the features that night were given the R rating.“LOVE STORY” was GP rated. I guess since “GOODBYE,COLUMBUS” was R,they when R for the night. I bet today “GOODBYE,COLUMBUS” would PG.Those 4 Steve McQueen hits are fantastic,What a line up of his work. Dog,I miss those days. Thanks so much Nick.If no one else enjoys them, you know you made my night.
Any more info would be great.
Yes you do.And take photos.

Wonder if the WILSON THEATRE played “WILSON” the bio-pic on President Wilson?
I have just about done all of Augusta’s Drive-ins.
Boy,Ken you are the first person I have come across that has heard of the “POPCORN KID”. Thanks.
I have it parking 790 cars and in 1956 run by INTERSTATE.
Most of the projectionists,not all, tended to always have issue of PLAYBOY or worse in the booth.
The SPARTA DRIVE-IN parked just 196 cars and was owned in 1956 by Cumberland.
Don’t know if the BOOKER Drive-in will get any more info than what I wrote,but anything would be great.One of the few Drive-ins in Augusta that no one really knows about.
Any help with more ino would great,but i don’t expect much for the WASHINGTON DRIVE-in.
Thanks,Bob.
I have this Drive-in 1956 parking 650 cars and was owned by STARLITE THEATRE COMPANY.
I have it parking 500 cars and in 1956 it was owned by WESTERN drive-in Theatres inc.
