The Boneyard is one of the coolest things we saw in Las Vegas. It contains hundreds of donated and salvaged signs from the late 1930s through the early 90s from mostly Vegas hotels, businesses, and casinos. The Museum will open sometime later this year. In the meantime, they do controlled tours of the Boneyard.
The Museum's Fremont Street Gallery and Signs Project also has actually fully restored some signs and placed them along Fremont and Third Streets. One small sign cost $20,000 to restore and re-electrify. We went to see these too, but not at night unfortunately, when they are lit up.
It's about a ten minute drive from the strip and well worth a visit.
