A 1957 Drive-In Come-On!

From Ed -- 
 
Oftentimes back in the 1950s drive-in theaters used various gimmicks and promotions to vye for business.  This is a 1957 advertisement for the Crab Orchard Drive-in Theater that was located around 25 miles from where my grandfather's drive-in theater.  Note that this theater was "giving away" a 1950 "bathtub Nash."  Given that the seats folded down to make a bed one can imagine many teen-aged boys hoped they would win the Nash.
