We had a closed drive-in here with a first-class monster Rogers screen. It was almost parabolic, curved both vertically and horizontally. Finally the property was sold and a contractor was hired to dismantle the screen. Then...it was found that the panels were transite (asbestos), with all the problems removing it that could possibly happen.

If you find an old abandoned screen check it out well before you offer to take it. A new one could be a lot cheaper!
