I know it isn't from your very favorite Nevada Club, but I think it's pretty cool!!
I'm sure that, as a Nevada Club fan, you'll remember the story and realize the significance of what's printed on the cup . For newbies, or those who don't know the story, the story is below the picture of the cup...
From a 1959 publication "This is Las Vegas" that was published by the Nevada Club:
The Nevada Club was successful from its beginning. By 1957 it consisted of three adjoining buildings. However, there were 16-inch concrete walls between the three buildings and legal and engineering problems had to be solved before the walls could come down. In 1957 the only bar was in the Nevada Club itself. Cocktail waitresses were prohibited by law from walking into the street with drinks--and players in the Fortune and Zodiac clubs were as thirsty as those in the Nevada Club. Holes were sawed in the ceilings of all three clubs and waitresses tripped demurely across the roofs to serve their drinks. That situation did not last long, however. Soon the separating walls came down and the three small rooms merged into the Nevada Club as it is today.
I love that little story ...and now we sorta' have something from the Zodiac Club, even if they called it the Zodiak Room on the slot cup.
