A model standing in front of the neon sign for Caesars Palace (Las Vegas), August 1966 advertising the grand opening. YESCO Collection, 98-12.
In honor of the recent roundtable on Jay Sarno's life and legacy, Head of Exhibits Peter Michel curated an exhibit on Caesars Palace that is located just outside of the Goldfield Room. It's drawn from a variety of collections in UNLV Special Collections, and features architectural drawings, menus, photographs, postcards, ephemera,artifacts, and original press releases documenting the history of one of the most legendary Las Vegas hotel/casinos ever built. Much of the material has never been on display before, and will be on exhibit through April 30.
