Y & W Drive-In T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)

The Y & W Drive-In in Merrillville, Indiana, opened on May 29, 1953, on Broadway, near Gary, and grew to three screens. Into the late 1970s, screen one played lucky Banko, a bingo game, every Friday night. A customer got a card with the ticket, and at intermission an announcer read numbers over the speakers until all the prizes were gone.

It closed after the 1997 season. Its huge steel sign was sold and removed in 2002, and the rest came down in 2004.

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