The May 14, 1955 issue of Boxoffice ran a story with photos on the recently opened Bel-Air. “The entire theatre is enclosed with a high fence of transite set in the ground with steel poles and concrete. The giant screen is 70x100 feet.”

Address is Janes Avenue, not “Jasmes”.

The drive-in is still a vacant lot.
