The MGM Mirage Records on Mandalay Resort Group consists of materials from Mandalay Resort Group’s office of public relations and community affairs records, which was closed after Mandalay’s corporate merger with MGM Mirage in 2005. The files, dating from 1968 to 2005, provide documentation of Mandalay Resort Group’s external affairs and internal operations. They contain subject files, photographs, negatives, slides, correspondence, VHS tapes, corporate publications, press releases, press kits, wholesale room agreements, hotel ephemera, employee newsletters, and press clippings.

The Strip Centre sign sits along a stretch of vacant storefronts in the north-end section of South Las Vegas Boulevard. Information about the sign is available in the Southern Nevada Neon Survey Data Sheet.
Sign owner: Has been for sale since 2013
Sign details: This location has is a little shopping mall, and is called the strip centre since they are near the north end of the strip. Though this location has been up for sale since 2013.
Sign condition: 3- has had some bad weathering over the years and the paint is quite faded now.
Sign form: Blade
Sign-specific description: This sign stand on top of the building above the entrance. It is a green base that reaches the top of the sign. On the top part there is a big green steel rectangle with yellow painted words "The Strip Centre" but the word "Strip" is contained in channeled neon while the other two words are skeletal neon. Beneath this is 3 green sign boxes that would contain back lit plastic signs, but there are no signs in them currently. To the south side of the main sign there are remains of a sign that look like it used incandescent light bulbs.
