@MikeyMuzak @CaesarsPalace Thanks. How about the pink suite photo, know any of those people? Can't tell whether that's Paluzzi at the piano or not. — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Feb 23, 2024

@MikeyMuzak @CaesarsPalace Bob Paluzzi on the couch here and at the piano in the other photo. I wonder how many of the other people in the photos are Caesars crew. — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Feb 22, 2024

@cheerose It's not clear that it was meant to be permanent – it was built for a delegation from DC who were out to hype the dam project. By Spring 1931, the arch was apparently looking bad and Fremont businesses were lobbying for its removal. — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Feb 22, 2024

Same time, facing east. The "Welcome" arch was up there from '29-'31. Hotel Nevada on the right is the future Golden Gate Hotel & Casino. Both photos by Oakes Vegas Studio. More here: https://t.co/VG2AUviM1F https://t.co/pItEcPuyFl — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Feb 22, 2024

@Bobnkasey2 El Rancho Vegas of '41-60, and the other of '82-92, were unrelated. Reused names of these hotels are always a source of confusion. — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Feb 10, 2024
