According to the history of the Silver Lake Drive-In in Perry NY, Jake Stefanon opened the Altoona when he was with the Blatt Brothers, a Pittsburgh-based theater chain. The Motion Picture Almanacs listed the Blatt Brothers as the owners from at least its 1952-82 editions.

The 1984-88 editions of the MPA listed the owner as simply Manos.

I believe the drive-in was where the Walgreens is now.
