"Amazing Colossal Man" Rampages Las Vegas & Sands Hotel Casino. I collect movie lobby cards with gambling themes. This one doesn't exactly fit the bill, but I couldn't resist buying it. In this 1957 movie, "Army Colonel Langan was exposed to massive amounts of radiation after a nuclear experiment backfires, causing him to grow at the rate of 10 feet per day.... One of the first atomic mutation horror films of the fifties, it is also one of the most absurdly entertaining. The scenes detailing Langan's growth and his attack on Vegas are quite memorable" (per TV Guide review).

Two YouTube clips of the Amazing Colossal Man play with the Silver Slipper iconic show sign and the Sands iconic sign:

Hard to read, but under Danny Thomas' name on the billboard is the famous "Opening Act" names of Augie and Margo (Rodriguez), who "have been celebrity performers since the Mambo days of the 1950's. They opened shows in North America and around the world for the Rat Pack and just about every famous person during the 1950's, 60's and 70's that one can name; and the list includes three Presidents and the Queen of England. They were recently invited to dance with the world famous Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas, and that is what they are presently (2007) doing."
