Bill Parson offers qualified opinion on Adair Drive-In opening Bill Parson writes: In answer to BJF. Looking at the AD one must assume that the opening dates shown in the ad, and with the ad being published in a the paper, dated May of 1952 again one would assume that is the actual time the drive in opened. Just a qualified guess. --Bill ParsonComments re article 93073 BJF A question inspired by JIMs Adair Drivein ad 2017-09-30 09:28:25 | Comments | Printable version
JIM: 'Annie' was two years old when Adair Drive In opened Jim writes: The Adair Drive In opened the same day the first ad appeared, May 21, 1952. "Annie Get Your Gun" had been released almost exactly two years earlier, but drive in theaters rarely showed first-run A-list movies. And too, "Annie," with several awards, great music by Irving Berlin, and blond bombshell Betty Hutton in the lead role, was a proven moneymaker, suitable for young and old alike. (The back story of the making of the movie reads like the script for a story arc of "As the Stomach Churns.") --JimComments re article 93073 BJF A question inspired by JIM's Adair Drivein ad inquiry from Mr. B. J. Fudge. 2017-09-30 09:07:03 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

JIM: 1952 News ad announced opening of Adair Drive In A capsule history of the opening and subsequent ownership of the Adair Drive-In Theatre. (Test yourself before unfolding the rest of JIM's story here. First, if you knew the original ownership in the second paragraph below, give yourself Valedictorian Status; if you remember subsequent owners, you are a history genius). Comments and memories are welcome, but must be below 212 degrees Fahrenheit. For those who wail and complaint about business taxes, do the math on the occupational tax for this establishment. One could have purchased a new house in the Harvey Addition for an annual occupational tax payment!!!
