that the ashtray is almost casino?
Do you know where it's from? Looking in a 1956 Nevada phone book, here's the exchanges....(but not all towns had gone to the 2-letter prefixes at that time)
EL (Elgin), Reno
FA (Fairview), Reno
GR (Granite), Carson City
PA (?), Alamo
WO (Worth), Austin (Austin went to the new numbers, with the 2-letter prefix) on September 15, 1956 at 12:00 noon
ME (Melrose), Battle Mountain
PA (Parkway), Caliente
AM (Amherst), Ely
HA (Harrison), Fallon
WI (Wilson), Hawthorne
FR (Frontier), Henderson
DU (Dudley), Las Vegas
EV (Evergreen), Paradise Valley (included in Las Vegas listings)
CE (?), McGill
FI (Fireside), Mesquite
PA (?), Panaca
YO (Yorktown), Pioche
SK (Skyline), Wells
Of course the ashtray could be later than 1956, I chose that year because it was the last state-wide phone book for Nevada. Regardless...it's a cool tray!!
