The El Rancho Hotel Tower & Casino, formerly the Thunderbird, took on its Western-inspired identity in 1982, paying homage to the original El Rancho Vegas. Located on the north end of the Strip, it featured a 13-story hotel tower added in 1988 to compete with the growing number of mega-resorts. Despite efforts to revitalize the property, financial struggles led to its closure on July 6, 1992. The abandoned building stood for years before its demolition in 2000, ending its chapter in Las Vegas history. This design is part of our vintage retro collection, celebrating the defunct golden era Las Vegas venues of yesteryear. Printed on our super soft 100% ringspun & combed cotton women's T-Shirt. Or upgrade to our Luxury 52/48 cotton/poly vintage heather edition for an even softer classic look. We print & ship all of our high quality graphic tees in the USA.
