Vegas Trip w the iconic Welcome to Las Vegas sign T-Shirt
Get ready for your gang's Vegas Trip with this customizable design featuring the iconic 'Welcome to Las Vegas' sign. The "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada" sign is a Las Vegas landmark that was created in 1959 by Western Neon. The sign was designed by Betty Jane Willis (1923-2015) at the request of a local salesman and was then sold to Clark County. The sign is a stretched diamond shape, with the top and bottom angles pointed while the side angles are rounded. There is a border of yellow light bulbs around the outside border. A series of circles contain a red painted letter each, outlined in neon, which forms the word "Welcome." On the top of the sign, between two blue pillars is an eight-pointed star outlined with yellow neon. The sign has never been copyrighted; this has resulted in the image being ubiquitous on Las Vegas souvenirs (yes, including this design, so thank you, Betty Willis!).
