Mr Dick Klein managed it and the Lorain Drive In in 1956. My dad and I hand painted large coming attraction murals in the lobby every week. I was paid 25 cents per hour, age 11. I always was admitted there for free. Sears and Roebuck was just down the street. That’s were I bought my first multi-speed bicycle. I still ride.
It was managed by the manager of the downtown Lorain theater, Mr. Dick Klein in 1957. There was a fish pond at the back. The screen was a concrete block tower, I helped my dad re-paint it. I always got in for free. I would walk there from the trailer park at next to Beaver Park. Friday’s were “Buck Nite”, One dollar per car load. One of the features shown there was The ten Commandments. We moved away to Olmsted Falls in 1959.
