Outdoor Movie Projection Booth

by Ralph Brandt
published on Jul 14, 2008

In the 40’s and 50’s outdoor theaters dotted the area. All had a combination projection booth, concession stand and restrooms. It was a lodw building so people could see over it. Haar’s Drive-in near Dillsburg PA is one of two I know of in the Central PA area. There were at least twenty in that area. Families could go for a dollar a car load. Each pole in the lot held two speakers, a car would pull up on each side, take one of the speakers and hang on the window. Not all cars in the fifties had car radios and they would run a battery down in less than a single movie. See also the outdoor Movie Projection Booth The projection building is at 40 01' 31.29" N 77 01' 11.97" W The screen is at 40 07' 33.51" N 77 01' 08.41" W.
