EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to September 1948 in Las Vegas, where gambling cowboys from neighboring ranches have gathered for a night of excitement. The image, captured by the talented Jean Manzon, showcases two rugged men engrossed in their game as they play the slot machines. Wearing their iconic cowboy hats and exuding an air of confidence, these men embody the spirit of the American West. Their backs turned towards us, we can only imagine the anticipation on their faces as they pull down the lever on the one-armed bandit. With waist-up framing, we are drawn into their world of luck and chance. The machinery surrounding them adds to the atmosphere of this snapshot in time - a moment frozen forever in history. As symbols of American culture intertwine with leisure activities like gambling, it becomes evident that Las Vegas has always been a hub for risk-takers seeking fortune. This archival photograph not only captures a specific era but also serves as a reminder of how our pastimes have evolved over time. It is an intriguing glimpse into a bygone era when cowboys sought thrills beyond taming wild horses or herding cattle on vast ranches. As we admire this remarkable piece from FPG's collection at Fine Art Storehouse, let us appreciate its ability to transport us back to an era defined by adventure and daring spirits who dared to test their luck against those mesmerizing slot machines.
