Summary: While it may be disheartening to think that there`s no way you could even sit in the same theater where the rat pack once performed, there`s one group trying to preserve a bit of Las Vegas history. And if you`ve been to Fremont Street, you`ve probably seen their work, which includes the 1966 lamp from the Aladdin and the 1967 Hacienda horse and rider. The Neon Museum is a non-profit group that has been collecting neon signs from all over Las Vegas and through generous donations they have been able to restore some of these mid-century wonders and install them in the downtown area as public arts displays. They are raising money to create an exhibit space from the lobby of the old La Concha hotel, which they hope to move from its current site to their land just north of downtown.
