Check out the old drive-in theatres in Orange County. Although none remain,
the photos below may bring back memories to some of you. Many thanks to
Georg Balandran and Louis Di Fazio for the photos below.

An extremely special drive-in theatre that was once on Hwy 39 (Beach
Blvd.) in Westminster is the appropriately name Hi-way 39 Drive-in
Theatre. Sporting a fantastic boating mural that spoke volumes of
the fine beaches nearby, this drive-in sadly met its fate in March of
1997. Yes, after 42 years, this treasured theatre was replaced by ...
a Walmart.

The marquee of the Hi-way 39 was plain yet royal in its look. It was
a shame to see a jewel of an ozoner replaced by a discount store.

Do you remember when Orange County actually had open drive-in theatres?
Well, welcome to the Anaheim Drive-in Theatre on Lemon Ave.
This
theatre showed it final movie in 1990 after 35 years in business.

The Screen Tower to the old Anaheim Drive-in Theatre looked to be an
interesting orangish color... a good depiction of Orange County.
