Correction: July 10th, 1953, just checked the Sulphur newspapers.
The Frontier Drive-In opened on July 16th, 1953 and was renamed the Tor Drive-In on May 2nd, 1955. Ads were pulled from the Lake Charles newspapers in 1955.
IT was at 350 I-10 N Frontage Road
Same drive-in? The Independent Film Journal reported on April 4, 1953: “The new 400-car Frontier Drive-In at Sulphur, La. will have its formal opening around April 20 for all year operation with 5-6 changes weekly.” The owners were Guidry and Duplisses.
The address is 2033 Ruth St, Sulphur, LA which is on the south side of the town just north of HWY 10. In a 1967 aerial photo, the drive-in appears closed.
Today, several businesses occupy the property with no trace of the drive-in remaining. http://tinyurl.com/pw68f4n
