The Sahara Hotel and Casino opened on October 7, 1952, bringing a Moroccan-inspired escape to the Las Vegas Strip. Over the years, it became known for hosting legendary entertainers like The Rat Pack, Johnny Carson, and Judy Garland. After nearly six decades, the Sahara closed its doors on May 16, 2011, marking the end of an era. This design is part of our vintage retro collection, celebrating the vintage defunct golden era Las Vegas venues of yesteryear. Printed on our super soft ring-spun & combed cotton unisex T-Shirt. Or upgrade to our Luxury vintage heather colors (cotton/poly blend) for an even softer, more durable, classic look. Which colors are luxury? We print & ship all of our high quality graphic tees in the USA.
