The date of this photo is unknown, but is from several decades ago and was taken at the Skyline Drive-In located on Route 19 in Harrison County. The screen can be seen to the far left, while the line is for the venue's restaurant. The facility is believed to have opened in October of 1948 and closed in 1985. If you have any memories of the Skyline please share them in the comment section below.
