This vintage postcard shows the exterior of Harrah's Club in Reno, Nevada. Classic cars are parked near the entrance, and the mid-century architectural style. The club’s name is boldly displayed in a stylized font above the entrance, capturing the glamour and excitement of Reno’s entertainment scene during that era. A vertical marquee sign on the building lists featured performers, including Red Nichols and his Five Pennies, The Markshes, Saunders & Miller, and Deedy & Bill.
A line of people waiting outside suggests a popular night, reflecting Harrah’s status as a premier venue for live entertainment, music, and nightlife. Red Nichols, a renowned jazz cornetist and bandleader, was a major draw during the mid-20th century, and his presence on the bill emphasizes the caliber of acts hosted at the club.
This postcard captures the energy and atmosphere of Reno’s golden age of entertainment.
This would look great framed or make an excellent addition to any collection.
