I picked up this hapawood resin plate a few years back at the swapmeet:
I didn't buy it right away because it wasn't a Coco Joes and it didn't have a tiki on it. The sticker said the manufacturer was Pictures of Paradise. Since I didn'tfind anything else that day,I went back and got it.
I remember when I bought it the lady told me it was from the 60's. She got mad at me when I pointed out the 1986 copyright on it
At the time,I never noticed how much the 27-192 looked like a Cocojoes catalog number
So yesterday, I was looking at this Cocojoes catalog and came across the page of Hapawood plates.
The plate I had was fresh in my mind because I had just moved it on my shelf of stuff.
Then I notice this logo on the catalog page:
Same as tag:
So I guess it's technically another fine Coco Joe's product.
And the answer was right there in front of me the whole time. I just couldn't connect the dots...
And while I'm on the subject of NonCocoJoes Cocojoes,here's another one I have from a company called Coralei:
Buzzy Out!

Here's a business card with the same address...
Which just so happens to be imbedded in this Tiki....
A CoCo Joe Tiki...
That company made the Coco Joe line before they went belly up...  They even had a line of American Indian figures...
Aloha, Freddie

I've got nothing but time to try...
A volunteer from the doubles pile:
Flat backed older piece
Now the drill:
Drilled it in about half way through the piece:
Next step involved a brad and a hammer.Here is the hanger installed:
Then I just slid the hole over the nail and the tiki was stuck fast:
Answer: Yes you can!
"Then I just slid the hole over the nail and the tiki was stuck fast"
That's what she said!
