Open ~1955-1961? Can anyone verify the exact dates?

Could use an address or crossroads, more info and photos.

Approx. address for this drive-in was 5120 Ohio 320, New Paris, OH 45347. This points directly to the drive-in’s entrance, which is still there.

I saw the Aristocats here – so I know it was open in 1970.
