LAS VEGAS 1959 -- at least that is when this sign was designed. We are not sure this is where it stood that entire time, as this is sort of on the "fringes" of the strip, but it certainly is the most famous representation of the city. A bit of trivia: The circles around the letters in the word "WELCOME" are representations of silver dollars, AND, this sign was designed by a woman, unusual for that time. We arrived on Sunday the 18th and returned to Oil City on Sunday the 25th. It was a great trip.
