    Beskrivning

    Neon Nevada takes readers and viewers on a literal and pictorial journey not only along the old Las Vegas Strip, but also down quiet two-lane rural roads punctuated occasionally with neon signs, those glistening beacons of civilization against the desert night sky. Because the neon resurgence has resulted in an institutionalization and appreciation of Nevada neon unlikely to fade, it is time for this updated statewide neon survey to complete the four-decade project – first published by the Press in 1994.

    "This is not merely a coffee table book. It's an immersive journey through time, a celebration of art, culture, and nostalgia. Whether you're a history buff, an admirer of stunning photography, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a bygone era, this book is a must-have. It provides a rare glimpse into a captivating part of Nevada's history, preserving the legacy of these iconic neon signs for generations to come."—Nick Vedros, president, the LUMI Neon Museum"The illuminating pages of Neon Nevada are back in print! Our well-traveled, dog-eared copy went with us on our first epic neon road trip and will sit side-by-side on the shelf with this beautiful new edition. Two copies recommended: one for your neon library, and one for your next Nevada road trip."—Randall Ann Homan and Al Barna, coauthors of Saving Neon and San Francisco Neon: Survivors and Lost Icons "Neon Nevada captures the energy and vitality of neon—one of the . . . most effective forms of advertising. The book is a testament to the largely unknown sign designers and tube benders who have made and continue to make Nevada's magnificent commercial landscape all aglitter!"—Alan Goldman, Blue Plate Productions, producer of the documentary film, "Glowing in the Dark" "Neon Nevada takes hits the jackpot, taking readers on a hellbent ride. . . . Through their vivid images and narratives, the authors bring the beauty and stories behind this fascinating slice of Americana to life." —Douglas Towne, editor, Society for Commercial Archeology Journal
