The Neon Museum announces plans to restore three Flamingo Las Vegas signs
Las Vegas (KSNV) — The Neon Museum is looking to relight some original signs of one of Las Vegas's oldest properties.
The Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel & Casino will have its historic 1967 pylon sign and two feather plumes restored, thanks to a donation by Emily Conner Cooper, wife of the late comedian and entertainer Pat Cooper; Andrew Pascal, CEO of PLAYSTUDIOS; and Felicia French, CEO of Opuzen.
Bill Clarke designed the pylon sign while Raul Rodriguez designed the feather plumes.
“Restoring these three pieces and displaying them together, The Neon Museum will be able to pay tribute to the oldest property still operating on the Strip,” said The Neon Museum executive director Aaron Berger.
“Opening in 1946, the final installation will allow us to present different time periods and design influences at the Flamingo and in Las Vegas."
The Neon Museum is open daily and includes an outdoor exhibition space known as the Neon Boneyard that is filled with some of Las Vegas’s most iconic neon signs.
