| To the best of our knowledge, no casino ashtrays were ever created for the Apache Casino. If you happen to know where one exists, please consider sharing a photo of it with the collecting community. |

The Apache Casino has been described as the first plush casino in Las Vegas, and it was the first hotel to install an elevator. The Apache Casino was on the ground floor of the Hotel Apache, along with other small businesses including the Apache Café and the Apache Bar. There is a marvelous article about The Apache, written by John Yee, in the Spring 2002 issue of the Casino Chip & Token News.
