A few more details.
Boxoffice, April 7, 1956: “The theatre will have individual speakers to accommodate approximately 200 cars. A screen 72x32 feet with a base of 50 feet will be installed. (J. K.) Munsell is doing his own contracting work which is being rushed, with all available equipment and help being mobilized.”
Boxoffice, May 19, 1956: “J. K. Munsell’s just-completed Baker Drive-In Theatre is open for business. The 230-car outdoorer, four miles west of town, is described as “strictly modern,” with a widescreen specifically built to eliminate distortion from the sides of the parking area.”
A better address would be:
Post Saddle Shop. Even though Google maps points southeast of the location, the shop itself is on the theater property.
The address is 7940 US-12, Baker, MT 59313.
Please update.
Another address that works for Google is 8 Latigo Trail, Baker, Mt. http://tinyurl.com/z5t4mh4
Found it! The drive-in was located west of Baker on HWY 12 and Country Road 349 on the SE corner. No trace of the drive-in left, but the property still has the basic outline of the drive-in. https://goo.gl/maps/X6xpg
