Max Baer Jr. has finally won approval for an outdoor sign at his Beverly Hillbillies casino in Douglas, Nevada.

Baer, who is best know for his role as “Jethro” on The Beverly Hillbillies, has been going back and forth with county officials for the last year to secure a variance for the oil derrick and sign for the front of his $150 million casino project.

The approved design will be 90 feet tall—county code allows a maximum of 30 feet—and will feature two sign faces with a total area of 617 square feet.

As approved, the sign is a drastic departure from what Baer originally proposed: a 200-foot oil derrick and a 2,600 square-foot sign.
