Abstract
The Southern Nevada Neon Survey Records (2002-2003, 2016-2018) are comprised of digital photographs and survey forms documenting neon signs in Las Vegas, Nevada. The records represent work done for the Neon Survey, which was a collaborative project conducted by the Neon Museum and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas University Libraries Special Collections and Archives. The survey forms document information on each sign such as the name and address associated with the signs, physical condition, artistic significance, and general history. The collection represents the efforts of two cultural heritage organizations in Las Vegas to document and preserve the artistic and historical significance of Nevada's neon heritage.
