Signs of Success^®

In 2013, retired Las Vegas art director Harold Bradford completed a painting of the Silver Slipper sign mounted on one of our vintage trucks. The painting is based on a black and white photo taken in 1958 in front of the original YESCO Las Vegas building.

Bradford is well-known for designing many of YESCO’s famous displays including the Stratosphere, Buffalo Bill’s, and the Rio Hotel and Casino. Since his retirement from YESCO, Bradford has continued to create similar oil paintings such as a beautiful desert landscape displayed at McCarran Airport. 

After its retirement in 1988, the slipper was restored and put on display at the Las Vegas Neon Museum alongside some of Las Vegas’s most iconic neon signs.
