This postcard shows Fremont Street at Second Street in downtown Las Vegas during night time. The main hotel casinos pictured are The Mint and The Horseshoe.
The card is not dated. Looking at the vehicles, I'd say they appear to be from the 1960s. Also, you'll notice the marque for the Sky Room in the lower right corner. The Sky Room existed from 1963 to 1969. At the time the photo was taken, Liberace was appearing in the Sky Room. Liberace died in 1987. Going by all those dates, this card would have to be from the mid to late 1960s.
The description on the back states:
Fremont Street at Second Street
Las Vegas, Nevada
Many luxury hotels and fabulous casinos await your arrival in downtown Las Vegas, Nevada.
The card measures roughly 3.5 by 5.5 inches and has great color. The card has straight even edges. The card has a divided back, meaning one side for the address and one side for writing a message.
I recently purchased a few dozen older postcards at an estate sale. The subjects of the cards are in and around the Las Vegas area. They are of 'old Vegas" and many are of the old casinos and hotels that have long ago been demolished. I do combine shipping on multiple purchases (see shipping notes below), so be sure to check out my other items.
CONDITION:
I am not a postcard collector and don't know how to 'rate" postcards. Personally, I think the card is in great condition. I can see that there are extremely tiny bumps to the corners, but they are so small that I can hardly see them.
SHIPPING:
Buyer to pay $2.50 First Class Mail delivery charges. That cost will cover shipping for up to the purchase of 4 postcards.
NOTE about combined shipping: My website host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
INTERNATIONAL PURCHASES:
Due to claims that merchandise is not being received at various international countries (although Customs tracking verifies the delivery), I will no longer be able to process international orders unless payment is made with U.S. currency, including conversion fees. Orders will be processed after funds have cleared a U.S. bank. PAYPAL WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FOR PAYMENT ON INTERNATIONAL PURCHASES. Seller reserves the right to void any international transactions where contact has not been made prior to purchasing.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they came from homes where smoking or pets were present. All items are sold in the same condition as when I received them.
