I RECENTLY UPLOADED PICTURES AS I WAS NOT LOOKING TO SELL AT THE TIME. I HAVE SINCE DECIDED TO SELL.
THERE WAS 2 PEOPLE THAT POSTED TO THE AD THAT HAD THE SAME YEAR ASHTRAY. YOU CAN VIEW THE PICTURES AT THE FIRST POST AND COMPARE FOR YOURSELF.
THAT SHOWS THERE ARE AT LEAST 2 OTHER ONES. THIS ONE IS PRISTINE, SHOWS NO SIGNS OF USE, IT WAS WRAPPED AND IN STORAGE FOR 75 YEARS, WELL I HAVE HAD IT FOR A WHILE, WHEN I BOUGHT IT IT WAS THE FRST TIME IT SEEN LIGHT IN 70 YEARS, HENCE THE IMMACULATE CONDITION.
I SERIOUSLY DOUBT THAT THERE ARE VERY MANY ASHTRAYS IN THIS CONDITION. WHILE IT MAY NOT BE UNIQUE, IT MAY VERY WELL BE UNIQUE FOR THE CONDITION.
THERE IS A SLIGHT COLOR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 1946 AND 1947 ASHTRAYS. THEN THE DESIGN CHANGED, SIMILAR LOGO BUT SAYS FABULOUS FLAMINGO, WHICH IS THE NAME CHANGE IN 1947.
THE MENU IS NICELY FRAMED AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
THE SANDS POSTER IS 0188 OF 5000. IT WOULD LOOK GREAT FRAMED. I BOUGHT 2 AND IT WAS LIKE $170.00 WITH SHIPPING SO ONE WOULD BE $85.
MY WIFE WORKED AT BOTH THE FLAMINGO AND THE SANDS IN THE 1960'S AS HER MOTHER USED TO OWN THE STAR MOTEL IN DOWNTOWN LAS VEGAS IN THE 1940'S THROUGH THE 1960'S, YES IT IS STILL THERE.
THE MENU AND THE FRAME AROUND $200 PLUS, NOT SURE OF THE EXACT AMOUNT AS IT WAS QUITE SOME TIME AGO.
I ALSO HAVE SOME ODDS AND ENDS I AM INCLUDING FOR THE SAME PRICE.
1. LETTERGHEAD FROM THE SANDS CASINO.
2. 3 UNUSED MATCHBOOKS AS SEEN IN PICTURE.
FREE SHIPPING VIA PRIORITY MAIL.
ALL IN ALL I HAVE $1000 PLUS IN THESE ITEMS.
MY LOW ASKING PRICE IS $400 OR BEST OFFER WITH FREE SHIPPING.
FIRST ACCCEPTED OFFER GETS IT.
