Hi Jim, the 78 Drive-in was located on old Hwy 78, now McCullough Blvd. northwest of Tupelo near the city limits. It was owned by the Malco theaters out of Memphis. Managed last by Frank O'Callaghan (still living but in poor health)
The Lee Drive-in was located on Robert E. Lee Drive, one block east of South Gloster St. on the south side of the street (the confusing Trace St. address was the owner, Rick Heard's home address). Projectionist for several years was Billy Bramlett, now with the Malco Cinema Ten in Tupelo.
