ELVIS, FRANK, DEAN, CASINO AND OLD LAS VEGAS....

July 31, 1969 Elvis played Las Vegas and I like this gig the most as he hadn't started wearing those crazy white jumpsuits. Sorry folks but I have never liked those suits on E... Liked him best in Black Leather or in this black mohair suit in the photo above...

The coolest signs ever made were hanging on the Las Vegas strip in 1950's-1960's..sadly they are gone now..

The film Casino is one of my very favorite Martin Scorsese films.  I did a story awhile back on the real people/players of that film.  Here is a link to it.. Casino the True Players

Then I found a very cool old time Las Vegas photographs and 2 cool slide shows... The one below is colorful and quite historic...

This slide show is incredibly cool check the entire story.... Las Vegas Slide Show

The Rat Pack is my favorite of all Las Vegas entertainers...I did a story I love on Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin.. ck that one out too if you are a huge fan like I am..
