snack bar ads, intermission countdowns, and the El Rancho drive-in

When I was growing up, the drive-in theatre was a cheap place for families to go. I remember the El Rancho drive-in in Kent, Wash., for many years charged $3.50 for "a carload."

Even back in 1960, the ads at the drive-in seemed corny. Here are some choice gems from the late 50's and early 60's.
