Regarding the 2-10-2012 QoD concering the Hilton sign: I recall reading many stories through the years where it is stated that virtually all Las Vegas casino signs are made by YESCO (Young Electric Sign COmpany), and their manufacturing contracts are written in such a way that YESCO is the permanent owner of the sign. I recall that the YESCO "salvage" yard is 10 times as large as what the Neon Museum has, and is several miles outside of town. Is there any truth to this?

I remember in the '90s that there was a casino in Reno (on Virginia St.) that had an upstairs room of vintage slot machines that you could play. Do you happen to know the casino's name and the whereabouts of those vintage machines now?

I understand that there was a piece in a 1993 issue of LVA about Jean Scott’s famous 50-day stay in Vegas (with 49 nights comped). The archives only go back to 1999, though. Any way that you could re-post that article? Thanks!
