Golden Slipper on the corner of the Last Frontier Village
Golden Slipper on 1950 Frontier brochure
The Silver Slipper opened on the grounds of the Last Frontier Village at 3100 Las Vegas Boulevard South in September of 1950 as the Golden Slipper Saloon and Gambling Hall. The owner, Beldon Katleman who would own El Rancho Vegas, wanted to call it the Silver Slipper, but a small bar and slot joint out on Boulder Highway, already had that name. To solve the problem, Katleman bought the sawdust joint, closed it down, and reopened the Golden Slipper as the Silver Slipper. I'm not sure exactly when as there is an advertisement in a December, 1950 magazine stating that the 'Golden Slipper Saloon and Gambling Hall located at the Last Front Village presents continuous gay '90s entertainment' with Hank Henry/Jo-Ann Malone/Gerry Knox/James Cavanaugh/Golden Slipper Quartet/Turk Murphy Band/George Redman/Ted Johnson/Bob Laine.
William Moore of the Hotel Last Frontier had a different story about the name change:
'It was originally called the Golden Slipper. We even had all of our advertising, menus, matches, so forth on printed with Golden Slipper on them. And when we started advertising in the newspaper to announce the grand opening of the facilities, we received a call from Art Ham, who was the attorney and major stockholder in the Golden Nugget. He indicated that he felt that we were infringing on the name of Golden Nugget by our Golden Slipper, and that the design was near enough to that of the Golden Nugget, the design of the actual struture itself. The idea was smiliar in the type of establishments that we were operating. [He said] that if we insisted on using the name Golden Slipper and did so, that he would sue us claiming that we were infringing on the Golden Nugget, and that they had copyrighted the name Golden Nugget and felt that we were subject to considerable damages on the part of the court. For this reason, the name was changed. It cost us somewhere in the neighborhood of $50,000 to reprint all the various advertising menus and so forth, but we felt that if he could make it stick in court, we would be subject to the damages he was referring to. We had no idea what damages would be assessed by the court and felt that we were on thin ground, and we felt that we had better change the name. We went out on the Boulder Highway and contacted an individual that owned an establishment, a bar and gambling casino, during the early part of the war and very possibly existed even before the war. I never did attempt to find out when it was first put in there but the name of the establishment was Silver Slipper. . . . So we contact the woman who owned the bar, and made a deal to buy the name Silver Slipper, wherein she would discontinue the use of it, and agreed to buy her new signs changing the name. What she changed it to, I do not even remember. But we bought the name; naturally, any signs that she had did not fit what we wanted to use. We just wanted to use the name. Then we changed all of our advertising, the signs for the building and so forth. - William Moore, August, 1981
The property that the Slipper was built on was occupied by the livery stables operated by Tex and Freida Gates. The stables were moved back into another section of the Last Frontier Village.
The Slipper had the reputation as the largest multiple-game gambling casino ever operated on the Strip. For the first time on the Strip, poker, pan and bank games began operation. Slipper also contained three Crap tables, three roulette wheels and four 21 games, and a Wheel of Fortune which was known as Big 4. The race book parlor contained the largest track board known to be in operation in the West which was managed by Jerry Jurtsich. Day manager of the casino was H.J. 'Pop' Fish, and the night manager was E.E. James.
The restaurant of the Slipper was a unique, enlarged reproduction of an early combination dining car and Pullman of about 1877. Hanging ceiling and wall lamps were copies of originals. Along the upper portions of the wall used a slanting pattern used to depict berths that were folded when food was being served in the car.
Vern C. Mitton of the Feldman Co. of Los Angeles specially designed the lighting fixtures. The fixtures were then installed by the Las Vegas Electric Company. The heating equipment was provided by Western Heating and Ventilation, and the plumbing was contracted by Larkin Plumbing and Heating Company. Painting of the building was done by Claude C. Fogel, the lumber contractor was Woitishek Lumber Company which also provided lumbar to the Frontier. The drapes were from The Wayside, and the insulation by Tri State Company. The companies of Cind-R-Lit, Inc., Real Clay Tile, G.K. Rubidoux Plastering Contractors, Sparling-Fowler-Murphy Engineering, B&N Tile Company, and Roberts Roof and Floor Company assisted in the construction of the casino. All dairy products were provided by Rancho Grande Creamery.
The second story of the Slipper provided a huge convention hall with 11,000 square feet of floor space which was the first convention hall in town. Over 1,200 can be seated auditorium style and approximately 700 banquet style. A stage 30 feet wide and 27 feet deep offered adequate space for entertainment.
Two partitions made it possible to quickly convert the convention hall into the size required for smaller groups. A 100 foot bar extended across one end of the hall.
The foyer, with its rose patterned carpet and heavy velvet and gold brocade drapes is reminiscent of all the plush luxury of the gay 90s.
Harry Farnow was hired as director of entertainment. Farnow brought in veteran comedian Hank Henry; a barbershop quartet consisting of James Cavanaugh, Al Terry, Johnny Vanderhoff, and Jack Leslie; ragtime and blues singer Gerry Knox; Norma Hughes, Turk Murphy's seven-piece Dixieland Band; and piano player George Redman.
The opening of the Golden Slipper was an event in itself lasting throughout the month of September, 1950. The Golden slip1950/Last Frontier Village had a Fireworks display on September 5th at 9:00pm. On September 6th there was an open house at 7:00pm which boasted an old fashioned wiener roast in the covered wagon circle. The wieners and beer were free with music being provided by the Cowboy Band. On September 12th, there was a barbecue starting at 5:30pm with free aprons and hats given out to the guests. Music was provided by the Frontier Cowboy Band and the price was $2.00 for adults and $1.00 for children. There was also a key given to anyone who made purchases at the Village. If the key fit in the lock the winner won $500 in silver dollars.
Everyone welcomed the Golden Slipper to the Strip including taking out ads in newspapers welcoming this casino, including the other resorts.

In an interview, Frontier's William Moore was asked about a contest (date not stated) for a girl who could fit into a slipper.
'It turned out to be the wife of one of the employees, and she was the only one that fit the slipper that we had and used in the advertising. . . . It was a rather small foot. So later, we picked up one of her slippers and had it gold plated, and then later silver plated when we changed the name from the Golden Slipper to the Silver Slipper. She was given a considerable prize and she was touted at the opening of the Silver Slipper and so forth, but I just do not remember the exact details at the present time. - William Moore, August, 1981

With just a bit of inducement, Baer jumped on stage and became part of the act. The customers got a lot more than they bargained for when the two Maxies broke the place up. (Baer's son, Max, Jr., is best known as Jethro on the Beverly Hillbillies TV show.)
Also in April of 1955, General Manager Bill Kozloff, arranged for Nino Valdes to do his training at the Silver Slipper. Nino was fighting Archie Moore on May 2, 1955 at Cashman Field. Hundreds of fight fans visited the Slipper to watch Nino train.
In June of 1955, showgirl Joan White was profiled. White as born in New York City (The Bronx) in 1931, the second of two daughters of Mack and Martha White, professionals with the Joe Yule burlseque road shows. When her mother divorced in 1935, they moved to Los Angeles where White attended Menlo Park Avenue Grammer School and Santa Rosa High School. White had no formal training in singing, dancing, or acting, being known as a natural. She got her first break in 1947 while spending the summer in Lake Tahoe. Buster Pearl and his orchestra permitted the kid to sing a song with them and hired her on the spot.
In the fall of 1947 she left Tahoe for San Francisco to visit her sister, when she ran into Myrah Gates, a choregrapher, who offered her a job as a line dancer at the Italian Village (the old Lido Club). Following the Italian Village, she joined the Eastman Trio for a TV series, then to line dancing and singing in an Oakland club with the Dottie Dee troupe. They later traveled in Alaska and Mexico, and the southwestern U.S. winding up at El Rancho Vegas in 1953. By this time White was assistant choreographer to Dottie Dee.
Myrah Gates was the choreographer at the Slipper and when White was fired from El Rancho for reasons she couldn't ascertain, Gates hired her. From September 13 through May 19, White had given 2,476 consecutive performanes (28 shows per week, or four nightly) without a vacation and without missing a performance.
White was then in an accident and received an injured eye and slight brain concussion, but she went on. Her fellow-players considered her a top performer and real trouper. Sandwiched between the heavy show schedule are appearance for charities and Air Force Base entertainment. In her spare time she sews, making many of her bowns, and cooking up meals for the cast.

Jack Cortez of the Fabulous Las Vegas Magazine stated his belief that the Slipper would have had a terrific reaction if they had held Buddy Baer over, to appear with Gorgeous George. He opined that the prizefighter and the wrestler would have been sensational together.

'A stripper can do what she wants and express her feeling in her own way, without being tied to a set pattern and design, set down by someone else.' - Tex Sheridan
In April of 1956 it was noted that the restaurant's cook was Claude Shangreaux. Shangreaux had been working at the Slipper for over four years and just loved it there because the place and the people were conducive to him doing a real fine job. Prior to the Slipper, Shangreaux worked in Reno for eight years and for many years he worked the finest restaurants in New York City.

In 1957 Silver Slipper had a cameo spot in the movie Amazing Colossal Man
My Uncle had no recourse - the casino had been offered the design by his company representative, they had paid his company representative for it - So unfortunately he never got credit for designing the sign or any payment for it. The local sign company ended up constructing the slipper.
My Uncle was a great guy. He had polio at a very young age and one of his legs was paralyzed, so he was crippled. It was quite a while before they fit him with a brace so he didn't have to use crutches. He never let his disability dampen life for him, nor did he ever expect something from anybody because of it. He was killed in a car accident in 1985. He was also involved with the design and building of the original McDonalds' Arches. The first McDonalds was, as you probably know, in San Bernardino.' - Beverly Phillips, June 2003
Old Time Get-Together
The Silver Slipper's main attraction, in addition to gambling, was the burlesque show seven nights a week, boxing in a second-floor auditorium, an inexpensive chuck wagon buffet, and a round-the-clock $.69 breakfast. The Red Garter lounge was set up as a speakeasy, where guests were entertained with a Dixieland band and nostalgic songs which evoked bygone days of jazz and jitters.
In May of 1957, The 'swingin'-est' rock and roll session in Las Vegas was scheduled to take place the following Saturday.

Unlike other resorts along the Strip, the Silver Slipper was strictly a casino operation. It offered neither hotel nor motel accommodations. It's appeal was chiefly to tinhorns and grinds (small bettors) who liked to visit the fabled Strip with their shirts open at the neck. When a part of the Last Frontier Village was demolished for the New Frontier, the Silver Slipper expanded and became its own casino separated completely from the New Frontier.
The Silver Slipper became known as an 'inside crowd joint,' frequented by Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., and other members of their 'clan,' who liked to decorate the craps tables of the more informal joint when they were appearing in shows elsewhere on the Strip. Jack Morris was listed as one of the co-owners of the casino.
Vegas was the host in the 1950s to many top nuclear physicists, gathered for the A-bomb testing at Yucca Flats, along with national and international press, radio and even television people. The scientists especially, were butts of many satires in typical burlesque form of their mutually dubious enterprise of blowing up the world.
