This vintage clear ashtray comes from The Nevada Club in Las Vegas.
The Nevada Club opened on Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas in 1932, during the early years of legal casino gambling in Nevada. Located among the small casinos and gambling halls that made Fremont Street the heart of the city’s gaming scene, it grew over the following decades, expanding into neighboring buildings and becoming a major downtown operation.
By the late 1950s, the Nevada Club had expanded with a large marquee and a reputation as a lively downtown gaming spot. Its slogan, “Exciting Las Vegas,” appeared on promotional items including glass ashtrays, which guests could use in the casino or take home as souvenirs. Today, these vintage ashtrays offer a small glimpse into old-school Fremont Street, when casino names and slogans were part of everyday life in Las Vegas.
