NCR---Jim Follis...here's pictures grin

Couldn't get the older camera to work mad , so couldn't take any low-light pictures...so here's daylight pictures, reflections and all! grin

More pictures will follow the list...

Hard to read the swizzles, so starting at the blue one (located at 12:00) we have:

Westerner
Fremont
Harrah's
Caesars
Circus Circus
Stardust
Del Webb's Mint
Dunes
Barney's El Capitan
Sands
Landmark
Caesars
Sahara
Riviera
Desert Inn
Dunes
4 Queens
Riviera
Joe W. Brown's Horseshoe Club
Caesars
Golden Nugget
Thunderbird
Tropicana
Dunes
Fitzgeralds
Showboat
Thunderbird
Caesars
Harveys
Riviera
Caesars Boardwalk Regency, AC (I did this display so long ago, that we hadn't yet limited our collection to Nevada!!!)
Dunes
Desert Inn
Flamingo
Flamingo
Caesars
Castaways (I think this was an ooooooopsie-doodle! Sometime after constructing the display we found another, similar, swizzle stick. On the back it mentions some state other than Nevada sad ...starts FL... sad )
Riviera
Aladdin
Dunes

A picture of the back, you can see where I've stitched the swizzles on the board using nylon thread (and every time I started a new thread, I taped down the end of the old and the end of the new, to keep the tension!):

And one thing I forgot to mention in the "tutorial" grin , I used sticks from the craft store...probably 1/4" square, colored black with a marker, glued around the edge on top of the foam-core board, to give space between the glass and the frame. Have fun making a display of your own! grin
