I sifted through 40 something years of pull tabs and bottle tops and found this. I figure its from late 60s early 70s. Nothing else worth mentioning though. I was surprised i didnt hit more.

I feel you. I did what was once our local drive in without much to show for it. If you go back try to find the rail that they usually had right in front of the screen. Smaller kids would get bored with the movie and play there.

Nice find from the past!

Check the raised dirt area where the speaker poles were located...people would open the car door and reach in their pocket for the keys and coins would spill! In the past, I've had good luck in those areas.
