Lorain Drive-in Pizza


Here's a newspaper ad for the Lorain Drive-in from June 15, 1960. It's interesting because it doesn't list the names of the movies being shown, as it is a special Appreciation Night promotion. It also advertises that every 15th car gets a free pizza.

That got me thinking about transplanted Lorainite Alan Hopewell's blog, which is called Pointing the Cannon, and his story about the first time he ever had pizza – which according to his story was at the Lorain Drive-in. Want to read the story? Then head over to his blog and enjoy this story and many more thoughtful essays about growing up in Lorain.
