  • <p>Here are two grand opening ads for the Portland Drive-In Theatre. Launch date was July 2, 1949 and — in addition to two features “Thief of Baghdad” and “Fall In,” there was a fireworks show as well. The drive-in advertises as the largest drive-in in the world. The claim is rather hard for patrons to check in the pre-Internet world.</p>

              <p>Photo - Courtesy of Roy Mudge</p>
            
              <p>The Glass brothers opened Geraldton’s second drive-in, the Ozone, on the south-east corner of the intersection of Blencowe Rd and Utakarra Rd, on 21 September 1964. There was room for 245 cars on the ten-acre block, which was beautified with trees and shrubs, providing some wind protection. The block had a slight slope and the screen was four feet wider than that at the Oasis.</p>
            
              <p>The opening night was offered as a benefit to two local groups – St John Ambulance, and the Men’s Hockey Association. The Ozone was the first of Geraldton’s three drive-ins to close, in (1977?). In 1997, the concession building and screen were still standing in a wilderness of grass and overgrown shrubs, and the land, which was still owned by the Glass family, was for sale - Notes Cinema Web.</p>
