I returned from the Catskills to the new apartment. The refrigirator is still not working, but the internet is. Hence I present to you A TRIP TO THE MOVIES from a couple of weeks ago.

These pics RAWK! Particularly love the projection equipment. Classic.

The lack of vandalism is amazing.

thankyou!

yeah, there was barely any graffiti (except some at the base of the screen itself), however, there was a nest of angry wasps...

That may explain it. They were the wasp-keepers, as seen on some other abandoned places. Really nice pictures, these and the hotel´s.

these are amazing photos. i love the subject matter but they're also just great shots. where is this? do you know the story behind this place?

this is about an hour outside of Boston...I don't know the particular story behind this drive-in, just that it's one of the many that went the way of the dodo...

Very nice find - cool to see so much of the old nickle lettering still in place, and the elongated and thin architecture of the screen and ticket house.

I so envy your time and equipment... and continue to thank you for sharing your vision.

If you aren't yet planning one -- do consider an art book, one day -- you would be on coffee tables everywhere.
