While the image of Vegas continues to change and evolve, there is one thing that remains the same. That one thing is the neon signs. These signs are now on display at the Neon Museum.

Located down at the Fremont Street Experience, the Neon Museum is a walking tour designed to preserve the pieces of Vegas memorabilia. Opened in 1996, the museum serves as home to some of the most famous signs in Vegas history. Signs include the Anderson Dairy, a genie lamp from the Aladdin Hotel and The Flame Restaurant sign. The museum specializes in taking sign and restoring them to their original wonder. The Chief Hotel Court is one of the oldest signs and was refurbished before being given to the museum.

The museum doesn't just display sign that have been refurbished, it is also home to the "neon sign boneyard." The Young Electric Sign Company supplies many of the non functioning signs. Signs are also donated by individuals, businesses and other other sign companies that were chosen by the Board of Directors. Tours of the boneyard are designed for groups less than 10. Special appointments are needed for larger parties.

For those that can't make it to the boneyard, you can check out the Nevada State Museum as there are 30 signs on display. You can also check out Neonoplis, a shopping center located on Fremont Street. Neonopolis has signs around the country ranging from the 40's to the 60's. All of which have been refurbished to their original state.
