Great descriptions of happenings in Las Vegas in the 1950's, Restaurant La Rue, Acts at the Sands opening, celebrities acts at the Sands, and lots of names of Sands staff.

This is a link to the Deanna DeMatteo LV-history site with lots of pictures from the Sands I'd never seen before. Great site!

Please don't poach the pictures or vintage commentary from the site!
