According to the International Motion Picture Almanacs on my shelf, the Amenia was almost the smallest US drive-in. The 1969 IMPA’s smallest listed capacity was the Bamberg (SC) Drive-In at 50 vehicles. It listed the Amenia at 54; the very specific number suggests a level of accuracy.

Then again, a 2014 article in the Poughkeepsie Journal reminisced that it had room for just 44 cars. It also said there was a permanent old car on the grounds to accommodate walk-ins, and that it closed in 1983.

Of course, the world’s smallest is the Jericho Drive-In in the outback of Australia with space for just 34-36 cars.

Now this is just what we need here in eastern NC, maybe someday I will have a piece of land big enough to build on around this size. For now I will just concentrate on my Ideas for portable D-I’s.
