Arroyo Drive-In T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)

The Arroyo Drive-In in Cortez, Colorado, opened on September 3, 1950, after a cable snapped that August and splintered the wooden screen tower. Early ads spelled the name Arroya. Terenzio and Anna Gai became its owners in the 1950s, and Allen Theatres of Farmington, New Mexico, bought it in 1967.

In 1988 the owner learned that repainting the screen would cost $7,500, and he closed the theater instead. The sign stayed up for years afterward, an arrow pointing at a field.

Printed to order in the USA when you buy it. Standard US shipping is free on orders of $55 or more. Shipping details.
