Bring On The Dancing Girls

Sunday Feature - Another Place, Another Time

Reno, Jan. 1973
Here we have another Nevada photo from long ago.
No doubt the Primadonna is ancient history.
I hope the showgirls were rescued.

That must be a restaurant where you had a one armed bandit next to your table. Funny that they served breakfast 24 yours. No dinner probably. To difficult for the kitchen .

Never went to Reno until we moved to Mammoth...love the showgirls...I'll have to cruise the Reno strip and see if it's still there the next time I need to go shopping!!!
(when K-Mart doesn't suffice as a shopping destination, we have to head south to LA for a 5 hour drive or north to Reno for a 3 hour drive...I've become quite good at internet shopping!!!)

Kathy, I cruised the strip on Google Street View. The girls are gone. :-(

In Las Vegas there is a Neon Sign Graveyard/Museum. I wonder if there is an equivalent place in Reno.

Great piece of history.

I think I've heard of that museum...maybe the girls are there!!!

Wayne said...

Now you have a new project Kathy. :-)

God Bless his soul...he will be missed...
