The date of 1956 is also notable, because theaters were well into wider aspect ratios on their screens. This theater coped by blacking out the bottom part of the screen to make the image "wider."
I don't know what has happened to the theater today. Of course, it is missing from on-line phone book listings; but I don't know what happened to the land.
Terraserver photo of Iaeger. It's returned to being an undeveloped lot, probably a farmer's field.
The American Drive-in Movie Theater has a sidebar about this photo on page 100, but they call the theater the Laeger.
