The drive-in was built for Alder Theaters opening on May 1, 1953. The theater was on the corner of Highways 10 and 13 on the south side of Marshfield.
Rogers Cinema acquired the 10-13 Drive-In and Alder Theater in 1972. It was closed on September 5, 1982.

That’s the area.
The last time I was in Marshfield was a year ago. I’m going to stop by there later next month and get photos of the area.
In the early sixties, Adler Theaters ran the 10-13 and the Adler in Marshfield as well as the Rosa in Waupaca. E.B. Adler was president of the company, which was headquartered on 105 E. Second Street in Marshfield.

A more accurate address is 9282 Heritage Drive, Marshfield, WI. Today, a rather interestingly named business, the “Rear End Bar” complete with exotic dancers occupies the center of the property.
You can still see some of the ramps, the marquee is still standing near the entrance, and there appears to be remnants of the screen remaining as well. http://tinyurl.com/hpmk3xm
