    Sahara Tahoe....July 1973

    This is a picture I made of a portrait outside of the Sahara Tahoe Showroom in July of 1973. It's an oil portrait of the famous pic of Elvis in his overalls. It was really beautiful!

    No, the Sahara had oil portraits of some of the "big names" that had headlined the showroom.
