The Neon Museum officially "opened" with the installation of its first refurbished sign, The Hacienda Horse and Rider, on November 15, 1996 at the intersection of Las Vegas Blvd. and Fremont Street.

THE HACIENDA HORSE AND RIDER

The Hacienda Horse and Rider was first sign to be put on display on Fremont Street. Originally installed in 1967 at the Hacienda Hotel, it was formerly located at 3950 Las Vegas Boulevard South. The sign was restored through a generous donation from Brad Friedmutter. It can now be found at the intersection of Fremont Street Experience and Las Vegas Boulevard. It was designed by Brian Leming and built by Young Electric Sign Co. (YESCO)
