A 1982 aerial view shows the drive-in in great condition with its screen and glory, but was already wiped by the early-1990s.

Question: Does this have a Bakersfield address or an Oildale address?

It appears that right when the theater opened, there was a lack of both a manager and a projectionist.

JF Theatres took over the Jumpers on June 30, 1988, followed by Loews in October of that same year.

50sSNIPES commented about Liberty's Premier Discount Cinemas on May 31, 2026 at 7:35 pm

JF Theatres already sold most of their theaters to Loews in October 1988, so I’m very sure this is probably one of the very last JFs in the chain.
