Las Vegas Mayor Oran K. Gragson and his wife Bonnie wave from a convertible in a parade on Fremont Street at night. They are passing under a rope decorated with garland and paper cartoon railroad cars. Behind their car is the St. James C. Y. Marching Band. Neon signs for several business are visible in the background, including Franklins, Michael's Quality Shoes, Thrifty Drug Store, and part of the Golden Nugget Gambling Hall sign. Oran Kenneth Gragson (February 14, 1911 – October 7, 2002) was an American businessman and politician. He was the longest-serving mayor of Las Vegas, Nevada, from 1959 to 1975.
