It even has the OMC sticker on it. If you don't find one for real cheap out there before your next trip to SD, you can have this one. I'll set it aside for you. Stop by for a visit and grab it next time you're down here...

here's this past weekends flea market finds- a mug from the nugget casino in sparks nevada and a home ceramics tiki mug made from an old hawaiian village mug or some such thing- you know the one- it's a yellowish mug with black lines and white eyes. I forget the name of it, but this mug was most likely cast from a mold of it.

That would be the one and only mug made for the Hawaiian Room at the Hotel Lexington in New York.

wow what a great thread!! the new GF and I spent all day mothers day going to the swap meet and then 10 thrift stores and hit the Mother load of hawaiian shirts, 30+, along with a boatload of tiki items......
Did I mention shes a mom and wanted to spend mothers day looking for tiki stuff with me?? God I love her!!!!
luckily, the thrift store Good Will does a great job of keeping "Like" items together, so I'll usually find hawaiian and african items lumped together, which makes it easy

I think some thrift stores put out "seasonale" stuff per season, seems like mine always have Xmas items out all year round, but Im noticing more Summer related items lately
Id better change the photo of the two dogs in the frame before my dogs get jelous!!

does anyone know anything about the two 1960s plastic hula girls in the last picture? I found four of them at the swap meet for $1.00 each and would love to find out if they are anything special

Ugh, all these gorgeous Maori clubs make me sick. I would LOVE to find one. The best I've seen are the pathetic examples on ebay.
