Another vintage photo gleaned from some tumblr account, which strikes me as
pre-Tiki, maybe 30's/40's? judging by the hair stlye. I'd have to confess,
I'm fascinated by this kind of photograph, we've all heard the term "Tiki lifestyle"
and for me this type of picture embodies that sentiment, it's one thing for people
to attend a fancy dress party in a grass skirt but entirely another for someone, who
is probably fairly straight-laced in their normal day to day life, to pose in this manner,
particularly in the earlier part of last century.

I think we could safely assume in her normal day to day life being paid as a model is easier than being a prostitute?

Here are a couple more pics from that shoot I spotted on e-Bay:

Trader Tom, were those ebay images you posted from a magazine auction or stand alone images? Thank for posting them.
I recently discovered another lucky tiki photoshoot and the home bar associated with it with a blond model. Also included in that issue is a another photo of the below model with that home bar but not the tiki. STUD vol.1 no.3 mid 1960s
But first I need to get posting this Jaguar issue out of the way.
Jaguar

TIKI IMAGE ZOOM
=========================
Auction images of
NUDE LIVING - #42 - Volume 6, Number 6
August 1967
(I believe I have this issue in a box somewhere so the auction images will have to do for now...)
Cover model is model/actress Candy Earle who was in The Rebel Rousers with Jack Nicholson http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066286/ . A search turns up this video of her if interested http://archive.org/details/VintageStripper_748

They were stand alone images. Here's another from a different shoot featuring that same Tiki. I don't think anyone's posted this one...but I could be wrong.

Oh, no! Remember Dustycajun's picture of the adult Tiki Theater, on page 12 of this thread?
( http://www.tikiroom.com/tikicentral/bb/viewtopic.php?topic=1389&forum=1&vpost=434430&hilite=adult%20theater )
Well, it's popped up in the news, in a rather unfortunate way. Allow me to nominate 72 year old actor/comedian Fred Willard for the dubious Paul Reubens Award.
(I see now, this story was also posted in the more appropriate Tiki Porno Theater thread.)

The triple posting of this points again to the dilemma of Tiki Central: It is just too diverse for that to not happen. It is a social media site, an event site, a collector's site, a sales site, and a cultural research site all in one. Result is: People think of a subject under different headers, like here:
General, Erotic, and Locating.
The advice is: Do not assume any header, simply put the SUBJECT that ties it into Tiki into "Search", and Voila, the thread pops up...yet, as in this case, spelling can mislead you: If correctly spelled "Tiki Theater" like it is on the marquee, it would not come up as easily as the misspelled header of the thread "Tiki Theatre".
http://www.tikiroom.com/tikicentral/bb/viewtopic.php?topic=26718&forum=2&start=15
I am resigned to the fact that newbies will come here and not take the time to search, or simply will not know the rules, to the fact that the "Search" itself is not perfect, and that the choice of thread is subjective. This should not diminish the importance of the valiant attempts of DustyCajun and others to keep things in line though. When you're new to a site, you are liable to make some mistakes. Don't take corrections personal, just try to do better next time.
I chose the specific Tiki Theater thread because it is the best in terms of photos AND description of the interior. But I am assuming that many folks here regard "Locating Tiki" as a nerd corner for the researchers. Just be reminded that without all that research and cultural context, there would be no Tiki party and drinky drinky today.

I stand proudly as a "Locating Tiki" nerd, because it IS my favorite landing spot. Well said Bigbro. OGR
