This authentic Vintage 1978 Endymion Extravaganza Highball Glass serves as a premier piece of New Orleans Mardi Gras history, commemorating the legendary super-krewe's main event held on February 4, 1978. The front displays the iconic Krewe of Endymion crest printed in a sharp, vibrant green over an opaque white frosted wrap. Historically significant, the text highlights the venue as The Rivergate, the famous, now-demolished New Orleans convention center that hosted the Extravaganza party from 1974 to 1980 before the event permanently moved to the Superdome. Flanking the central crest is a festive pattern of green stars that pays tribute to the celebrity guests and entertainment from the krewe's historic early eras, with visible names including Hollywood legends Humphrey Bogart and Bing Crosby, alongside a roster of 1970s performers like Alice Cooper, Gino Vannelli, and others. A true treasure of Louisiana Carnival memorabilia, this highly collectible souvenir glass captures the nostalgia, grand scale, and "throw until it hurts" spirit of the largest parade in Mardi Gras history.
