Going the e-mail rounds.

Beany's Drive Thru - Long Beach, Ca - 1952-53

The 50’s were the best years.
Notice the cooks at the drive-in, no gloves handling the food.
How did we survive??

Yep it's fun to watch, even Mr. "McDonalds," Ray Kroc, walking up in a suit and tie to buy a burger .
Notice the DRIVE UP window speaker to order..... 1953!!
This is great to watch if only for the cars and the clothes!
There is so much to take in, you will probably watch several times.

A bit before my time but those were definitely the "Good Old Days" from the looks of it. We still had drive in theaters when I was a teen. I would park in the middle of a slot and put a speaker on the left window and one on the right for true high quality stereo sound. :roll: :lol: :lol:

I just raised my hand over a hundred times. I should have had a 5lb. weight. It would have been a good workout. Kind of like the drive-in/gym. :roll: :lol: :lol:
