Las Vegas: Vintage Graphics from Sin City - Reseñas

Página 1
"Icons: Las Vegas is a case where a picture is truly worth a thousand words. In fact, there are only six and a half pages of text in this 192-page book, a compilation of classic photos and advertisements depicting Las Vegas from the early 1940s to the ‘60s. Flipping through the pages you`ll find historic images of since-imploded resorts like the Landmark, Sands, Dunes, and Hacienda. The introduction is written by the son of the Flamingo`s original owner, and a Las Vegas timeline is printed in English, German, and French."— Nevada Magazine, Las Vegas, Estados Unidos
"Anyone disappointed with the latter day, "family friendly" Las Vegas will high-kick like a showgirl over the TASCHEN titles that gathers classic photos and ephemera depicting the naughtier days on the Strip. Las Vegas: Vintage Graphics from Sin City is a kitschy trip into the past from the city's rise in the '40s to its Rat Pack-filled heyday in the '60s. Who couldn't resist a silhoutted black-and-white of Mr. Las Vegas himself, Wayne Newton? And for anyone who grooves on the retro cool of old Vegas, the book resurrects a bevy of bygone resorts that gave the place its irresistible allure in the first place."— Array, New York, Estados Unidos
This book is OK. I was expecting something better. The book consists mostly of kitschy 50's ads. There is nothing that makes this book interesting.— Frankenburger, Canadá
