On Jan. 27, 1952, the San Francisco Examiner ran a photo of the flooding that ultimately spelled doom for the Starlite. Not my copyright, of course, and possibly in the public domain. The original caption:
COAST GUARD AIDS - Joseph Can Arkel, his wife and infant daughter fled this apartment after flash flood engulfed Starlite Drive-In Theater in South San Francisco early yesterday. Here Coast Guardsmen - in unique inland role - help save household goods. Van Arkel is manager of theater. Barking of pet dog aroused family. - San Francisco Examiner Photo.
