Quinebaug Drive-In T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)

The Quinebaug Drive-In in Thompson, Connecticut, opened on May 1, 1953, with Alan Ladd in Branded. Its grand opening ad billed it as America's most modern drive-in. It stood on Route 131, just short of the Massachusetts line.

A photograph from 1977 shows a turquoise fin, a pink arrow, and a marquee offering the show for $4 a car. The theater was still open in 1978, and no closing notice has turned up. It was torn down around 1991, and the land became a housing subdivision.

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