This segment consists of three 50-foot reels of regular 8 mm film labeled "Las Vegas" #1, #2, #3.
The film boxes are addressed to: Joseph G. Rosetti in Albany, New York.
Based on the show marquees, I believe this trip is from around 1968. The film shows scenes from Las Vegas back in the day, along with Hoover Dam.

This is fantastic! The International Hotel footage is actually from 1969 when the hotel opened. I actually attended that show with my family seeing Nancy Sinatra, The Osmonds, and Mac Davis. I have a postcard that was laying on the table. I also have the sticker that I wore on my shirt from the Youth Hotel. I was eight years old. Amazing memories that I think about often. 😎

I remember most of those old casinos. I lived there until I was about nine or ten years old. I recall how hot it was there and playing in the desert with my sister. My mom worked at the Riveria and the Sahara Hotels. It's nice to reminisce about old memories. Wouldn't want to live there again though.

Look at those fountains. Evel Knievel tried unsuccessfully to jump those on a crude twin Triumph with ancient suspension just the previous year. It still boggles my mind, a former motorcycle racer, that he even considered such a thing to be feasible.

8mm film archive. August 1969. The International Hotel & Casino opened July 2. 1969. Nancy Sinatra headlined in August of that year. The "old town" was a display at Fort Lucinda Casino just west of Hoover Dam, today's Hoover Dam Lodge. Great video.

My family has been in Vegas since 1929. This film footage was taken 1 year before I existed on this planet. I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you. I Like to wonder what my Grandparents were doing when all these clips were taken. My grandfather was somewhere at work running their plastering business. His 120-man crew did the Sands and the Stardust. When they were building them, he always told me the MOB guys paid Good money for their Jobs as long as you were honest with them. They took good care of you. If you weren't truthful, they would take care of you not in a Good way

It’s too bad the large casinos moved in here now you got to pay for drink out of plastic that to cost you $50 bucks, change the rules on the blackjack and other games so it’s almost virtually impossible to win. They took the fun out of Vegas instead of remembering your name they ask for your players card and you’re just a number to them.😅

It appears to be a 1969 Chrysler Newport Custom in the Caesar's parking lot at 00:42. If "brand new" off the dealer lot, it could be the last few months of 1968 (when next model year comes out), but more likely is some date in 1969. Just further support to Vintage Las Vegas's August 22 1969 date.

Cadillacs, Lincoln Continentals everywhere, and a brand new 1968 red Volkswagen bug. Gas was 17 cents a gallon for regular/ 93 octane & 21 cents per gallon for premium/ hi -test @ 103 octane, Most casinos had 39 cent bacon & eggs breakfast & steak and eggs for 79 cents, included toast, hash browns & coffee. Minimum wage was .95 cents an hour and average 1 bedroom furnished apartment within walking distance of the strip went for $50-$75 per month during season. $10 a month less for off season or year round rentals. $160- $200 a month was average tourist industry wage , not including tips. 50% of your check went to rent, utilities & groceries, 25% went to personal maintenance like gasoline, laundry, alcohol, gambling and 25% could actually go in the bank on a good month or more if you didn't have a car or alcohol/ gambling habits. Though if you gambled drinks were free until you were drunk, broke or both.

Vegas was a place where mostly decent WASP people would go and spend ungodly amounts of money on food and entertainment then return to their whitebread meccas. They would see "dark" people sing or entertain and say that they were inclusive. My folks talked about going out there when was about 2 years old. Memories you have at that age are sketchy but I do remember being in a casino. I get a really strange dejavue at Tropicana. Mom said we stayed at a dive motel south of it.
