SUNSET DRIVE-IN THEATRE WASHINGTON, MO ARTIFACT


I'm always picking up vintage movie theater advertising give-aways and this Sunset Drive-In Theatre key chain/coin holder was the perfect little find. A few years ago I rescued it out of a flea market junk box labeled one dollar choice. "I'll buy that for a dollar!"

Ooh ahh. Look at that, it even glows-in-the-dark!


(Disclaimer - I had to photoshop the glow effect, as it glows way to faint for my camera to pick up)

Neat! Er, no pun. My family is from Washington, and as a kid I used to see that drive-in when we drove to my grandmother's house. I think it was already out of business by then, but the screen was still standing.

I like Neato Coolville! I'd somewhat forgotten how much pleaser simple things can bring. I'm going to move there.

Stacia - Too bad it didn't survive like most of 'em. Thanks for the comment!

Gary - Thanks and welcome to our fun little town.
