I found this little booklet in a batch of mostly "lodge-look" antiques. Paid $3.50 for it. It was copyrighted in 1942 and the pics are pre-war. The photographers were all Hawaiian natives. Some nudity!

Someone (perhaps a young man or art student?) outlined the lady here!

Psycho Tiki D: that finger looks an awful lot like my husband's! His got smashed at work by a metal container though - and it's been a while - I'm sure the nail will fall off soon. REALLY looking forward to that!

That reminds me of a bunch of jellyfish! It looks like it should be hanging from a vaulted ceiling - that's HUGE!

Got this from the original owner who said he had left it in the box since he came home from college. It is dated 1973
Oh yeah, it was $1.00 in the orig. box. and it still works.

I have been looking for a record player, since I have around 1,000 albums and no way to play them. I picked this vintage "boom box" style player up at the antique show last Sunday for $10.00.
It is a "Zenith Sterophonic" and works great except when the records drop. For some reason it stops. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
PTD

I've had this pair of coffee tables for years. Found them at a thrift store while working off some community service as a juvenile. There was a matching oval coffee table table that went with it, but didn't have the money right then. Went back a week later and the table was gone.
The room marker stuck to the top is from the suite level of the Contemporary Resort. Probably a collectors item in itself.
This I found last year at the local flea market. Couldn't help myself.
