Knox Auto Theatre T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)

The Knox Auto Theatre in Mount Vernon, Ohio, opened on June 17, 1948, as the first outdoor theater in Knox County, with room for 300 cars. Its neon sign showed KNOX in big letters over Auto Theatre in script, with a woman in a small round hat standing at one end.

The Sturgess family ran it for most of its life. The last shows were on September 4, 1988, with Bambi and Big Business. The 280 speakers sold for ten dollars each, and the old sign survives.

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