Collector’s Note:
The Royal Nevada Hotel, opened in 1955, was one of the short-lived gems of early Las Vegas architecture—known for its lavish “Dancing Waters” display and headlining acts in the Crown Room. Though it later merged into the Stardust complex, the Royal Nevada remains a favorite among collectors of vintage Vegas ephemera, mid-century modern design, and classic resort postcards.
