CURRENT EXHIBITS Neon Signs Displayed at Old Fort The Neon Museum has formed a new partnership with our neighbor to the north, on the corner of Las Vegas Blvd and Washington-the Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort State Historic Park (commonly known as the Old Fort.) The Old Fort has agreed to display some signs in its visitors' center, until such time as the Museum can display them. Currently on display is the small Silver Slipper sign which once hung over the casino's back entrance; the letter "A" from the Sahara Hotel and more. The prize in the collection is the fully restored Society Cleaners sign, with its signature top hat and cane, a reminder of a more elegant era. The Gamette family, who operated their cleaners on Fremont Street for 60 years, donated the sign. Robin and Danny Greenspun paid for the restoration. The Old Fort is open Monday through Saturday, 8 am to 4:30 pm. Admission is $3 for adults and teens, $2 children 6 to 12, under 6 admitted free. Information is at 486-3511 or click here for more information.
