Vegas Vic is a neon sign portraying a cowboy which was erected on the exterior of The Pioneer Club in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA in 1951. The sign was a departure in graphic design from typeface based neon signs, to the friendly and welcoming human form of a cowboy. The sign's human-like abilities of talking and waving its arm received an immediate acceptance as the unofficial welcoming sign, reproduced thousands of times over the years and all over the world. The sign can still be found (in disrepair) at 25 E Fremont Street, where it has been since 1951 on the exterior of what used to be The Pioneer Club but is currently a souvenir shop. The trademark is currently owned by Pioneer Hotel, Inc., which owns and operates the Pioneer Hotel and Gambling Hall on the Colorado River in Laughlin, Nevad

  • Vegas Vic är en 12 meter hög rörlig neonskylt som föreställer en cowboy. Den uppfördes på utsidan av kasinot i Las Vegas i USA 1951. Skylten avslutade traditionen med helt typsnittsbaserade ljusskyltar på stadens kasinon. Skylten är audiovisuell, den kan både prata och vifta med armen. Den blev uppskattad och fick snabbt inofficiell status som symbol för hela Las Vegas. (sv)
