Shot on 8mm film in 1962, this vintage clip captures a striking neon sign of a stylized eagle perched atop a building in Las Vegas. The eagle, rendered in bold geometric lines, appears to spit fire from its beak, creating a dramatic plume of light against the night sky. The sign is part of a larger illuminated structure, likely a hotel or casino, with partially visible text below. The grainy black-and-white footage, with its characteristic film grain and soft focus, evokes a nostalgic mid-century vintage aesthetic. This archival home movie offers a rare glimpse into the bold, theatrical signage of 1960s Las Vegas.
