Description

A postcard from Las Vegas. Handwritten message on back of postcard: "Dear Eleanor, when we struck this I said to Phil, you'd never get Eleanor out of it, I hate to leave but unless you're lucky you might as well keep going. Everything wide open and going 24 hours a day but very enticing. Some day after I've found that gold we're heading for I'm coming back and stake my poke our best to you and Bernard. Mae and Phil. Now Yosemite then S. F. Fair and down the coast."
