The ashtray features a bold red Thunderbird emblem at center, encircled by lettering reading \"Thunderbird Hotel and Casino - Las Vegas, Nevada - Caesars World Resort,\" firmly dating the piece to this narrow window of corporate branding.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFormed in heavy amber glass with fluted sides and integrated cigarette rests, the ashtray was intended for use throughout casino floors, hotel rooms, and cocktail lounges. The warm glass tone and graphic clarity reflect early 1970s Las Vegas resort design, bridging mid-century casino aesthetics with the more corporate branding approach introduced under Caesars ownership.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Thunderbird Hotel originally opened in 1948, but only briefly carried the Caesars World Resort designation. As a result, promotional items marked as such were produced in limited quantities, making examples like this more tightly datable-and more desirable-than earlier or later Thunderbird souvenirs.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nShows light to moderate surface wear consistent with age and use, including minor scratches and internal wear to the printed base.
