Las Vegas--Online Exhibition
Source: University of Nevada, Las Vegas Libraries
Before Gaming . . . Celebrating Las Vegas' Centennial, 1905-2005
"Before Gaming. Before Hotels. Before the tourists came. Where Indians, explorers, settlers, and ranchers wandered, set down, picked up, and mostly moved on. Until the San Pedro, Salt Lake and Los Angeles Railroad stopped for water. Then Las Vegas was a small railroad depot-with-a-town in the desert. The earliest images of Las Vegas are from the private collections of the families who were here in 1905 or who arrived soon after: Helen Stewart, Walter Bracken, William Ferron, Ed Von Tobel, Fred and Maurine Wilson."
