The San Pablo Auto Movie was a very nice drive-in, quite an improvement over San Pablo’s Rancho Drive-In and the El Cerrito Motor Movies at the time it opened.

It’s features included a big wide CinemaScope formatted screen and a very nice cafeteria style snack bar which included 100 seats for those people who didn’t want to watch the movie in their cars or walk in customers.

The San Pablo opened on July 29, 1953 with a dual projector 3-D presentation of Paramount’s “Sangaree” and a flat 2-D co-feature “Roar of the Crowd”.
