Sahara Hotel and Casino Vintage Las Vegas Glass Ashtray

Description

From the 1960s. The Sahara made its name over six decades as a playground and stage for some of the biggest names in showbiz — including the Rat Pack, Don Rickles, Johnny Carson and Sonny & Cher. Elvis Presley played slots here as he filmed "Viva Las Vegas" – and the Beatles stayed while in town to perform a concert. Milton Prell opened the Hotel Sahara in 1952 with 240 rooms. The .5 million, Moroccan-themed resort was decorated with life-size camels. A 14-story tower is built in 1959 adding 200 rooms. A convention hall on the north side of the Sahara is added as well as a 127-foot sign. Pictures are an important part of the description if you have any concerns please ask prior to purchase.
