Description

First State Bank, Las Vegas, 1905. Handwritten text on back of photo: "First State Bank - 1905 First & Fremont Street - Occupied same site as present Bank Building -- [in 1963 occupied by The Mint Club] Rooms upstairs were occupied by Masonic Lodge. This old building was later removed to an alley location just north of VonTobel's Lumber Yard." The insert that accompanies photo reads: "The history of Las Vegas and Southern Nevada might be well written around the history of the Las Vegas branch of the First National Bank of Nevada, a statewide banking system. For this branch has been an integral part of the growth of Las Vegas - sharing its hardships and its prosperity. Established as the First State Bank by a group of public spirited pioneers in 1905, the Bank, through the practice of sound banking policies has grown, until today it is symbolic of the strength of 'the One Sound State.'"
