Million Dollar Saloon, Inc. is a Dallas-based enterprise that owns and operates the Million Dollar Saloon, recognized as one of the leading gentlemen's clubs in the United States. Established in 1982, the club was designed to provide a sophisticated entertainment venue aimed at a professional clientele. To attract this demographic, the establishment features a high-end bar and restaurant set within an elegant atmosphere. This innovative strategy not only fulfilled its initial goal but also played a significant role in fostering consumer acceptance of adult cabarets and enhancing overall demand within the industry. Upon its inception in 1982, the club was regarded as a trailblazer in the sector, being among the first gentlemen's clubs in the United States to target an upscale audience.
The vision was to offer premium entertainment, quality food, and beverages in a refined environment. While this concept may seem straightforward, at the time, the gentlemen's club industry was predominantly associated with a more blue-collar clientele. The distinctive approach adopted by the Million Dollar Saloon proved to be an immediate success. The club's enduring success can be attributed to robust management principles that ensure a high-quality operation. The venue itself is designed with furnishings and architecture that evoke the ambiance of an upscale restaurant.
A high-quality light and sound system creates an inviting atmosphere conducive to conversation. The establishment features a full-service restaurant offering lunch buffets as well as an extensive lunch and dinner menu that includes a variety of hot and cold appetizers, salads, seafood, steak, and other main courses. A selection of premium wines, liquors, and beers is also available. Management diligently oversees the club's environment, ensuring the maintenance of facilities, music selection, staff appearance, and all facets of customer service, particularly for the upscale market. The club includes a "VIP" area that offers an enhanced level of luxury in its decor, featuring "The Champagne Room," premium beverages, fine wines, champagne, high-end cigars from the "VIP Humidor," and more personalized service.
At the Million Dollar Saloon, entertainers are required to adhere to management's stringent standards regarding personal appearance and demeanor. The physical presentation of performers, their ability to engage attractively with patrons, and their conversational skills are of utmost importance. Management mandates that all performers possess experience in dance. Although performances may include topless dancing, elegant attire is required when performers are not on stage. Full nudity is strictly prohibited within the club. Specific guidelines regarding attire, hairstyle, makeup, and overall conduct are enforced to uphold a high level of professionalism.

Stock and Bond Specimens are made and usually retained by a printer as a record of the contract with a client, generally with manuscript contract notes such as the quantity printed. Specimens are sometimes produced for use by the printing company's sales team as examples of the firm’s products. These are usually marked "Specimen" and have no serial numbers.
