What a terrifically atmospheric photo this is of the Gilmore Drive-In filled with cars (and I assume a liberal sprinkling of teenagers paying no attention to what’s on the screen.) In the background, we can see the Gilmore baseball field lit up. The drive-in and the stadium along with the Farmers Market and the Pan Pacific Auditorium were collectively known as Gilmore Island—a destination with something for everyone! This photo was taken in 1949 (a year after the drive-in opened), which makes me wonder what they were (or weren’t) watching.
