 Very vintage Las Vegas Vegas

Apache Cocktail Lounge, 1939 – today's Binion's Gambling Hall.

Photos of the hotel interior are exceptionally rare. This one has a lot going on: Two men at a microphone on the left, woman at a piano, room decorated with southwest and frontier motifs with a desert oasis theme centered around a fountain and plants, and relatively new Art Moderne furniture. "Bar" suggests a different room than the cocktail lounge. The Apache also had the hotel lobby, and a separate casino on the ground floor.

Check the comments for a detailed view of that poster ...
