The Meade Drive-In was located in Vine Grove, Kentucky and was the state’s smallest in 1961, parking only 60 cars. I can never understand why owners wouldn’t at least want 200 car capacity at the Drive-In. It was owned by Eugene Richter.

Open ~1961-~1964 approximate? Can anyone verify the exact dates?
Need an address, more info and photos.
This likely operated as early as 1952. There was detail stating that the theater might be located 3 miles west of Vine Grove on then-State Route 64, but I could be completely wrong.
Given that two drive-ins existed in nearby Radcliff during the 1950s, it makes sense that the Meade Drive-In would be on the west side of Vine Grove.
Unfortunately, I can see no indication of a small drive-in anywhere in or near Vine Grove using the 1955 & 1960 aerials. Either it’s there and I’m not seeing it (a good possibility if it only held 60 vehicles) or perhaps it was not built until 1961 and by the 1982 aerial had disappeared.
