Please change the address to 7868 Beechmont Ave. That is entrance to the drive-in. Plus that is listed on the ads.

A more accurate address for this theater would be 7868 Beechmont Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45255. This is at Hawkins Lane which was where the entrance was located.

Please update.

Yes, Bob, it was located on the NE corner. I went looking, but there’s nothing left to take a picture of.

I have it owned by a Rube Shor in 1956.

My guess is that it would have been on the Northeast Corner, is that correct?

Open ~1964-~1969? Can anyone verify the exact dates?

From 1964-1969 it was owned by Associated Theatres of Cleveland, O., Meyer C. Fine, President. In 1967 they had 36 theaters in Ohio.

More info and photos are always welcome.
