OK, so it's been a while for posting anything here.. Picked up these two a few weeks back. Original Van Rijn from the 60's 
And on the way back from Ohana, picked up another Hurricane LP.. This one reads, Hurricane as performed at the Tiki for the past 12 years. So not sure of the date this LP came out? I wonder just how many there were of her?

Found this weird item. A full bottle of sake in a lantern decanter.I haven't tried it yet but there is a battery compartment in the bottom to turn it into a working lantern

I don't think these are all that rare but when I was a kid these were two of the four toys I alway wanted but never had. Thank you Goodwill!

I've had these two original airbrushed works by "Gill" given to me many years ago hanging in my Tiki Room. I only know a little about them, but I do not know their value. They were produced in the late 1930's in San Francisco and they are in their original "Parmelee" 20"x24" frames. There are a lot of reproductions of these and other works by the same artist. These definitely are not reproductions and I know that these are getting pretty rare and have been real popular with the Hawaiiana crowd.
The two works are a matched set of the “Hawaiian Net Fisher” or, also known as, “Hawaiian Fisherman” #133, and the other is titled, “Woman with Fish” #134.
If anyone has any additional information on the artist and their value, I would sure like to know.
Thanks!

GASP! Can I come over and play?
I had a knock-off Shockwave (the purple one to non-transformers fans) when I was growing up. I really wish I hadn't sold them off when I was a teenager, most of the ones I had are worth a fortune to fellow collectors. I was one of those kids who made sure that all the parts were still there after playing.

yours has a higher quality wrought iron frame work,and materials
making me belive yours is a true Albini, and the google pic is a knock off.
Just my opinion,I could be wrong
