I have several reactions to several pix:
Vintagegirl, why does this never happen when I am at home?
I had gotten this, the biggest Tiki in the neighbourhood, because someone told me "Erect it, and they will come!"
Well, I am still sitting here at my desk, looking out at the front lawn, waiting...
Or did they mean it in some other way???
Trader Woody, is this a contemporary,"retro" painting/artwork?
Sabu, there is something wrong with that re-posted photo: If I would find myself in that position, I would never make the face on the right, but smile rather contently.
The Octavio pix are cool, but someone get that guy a better Tiki.

Here's a great one from an old Playboy magazine.

BigBro,
Yep, it's a contemporary painting. Frustratingly, I happened upon the website a good while ago and can't find it again. I recall that the artist set up the scenes, photographed them, then attempted to paint the result as closely to a photograph as he could. There were others in a similar vein, but without Tikis.
Highly impressive stuff, but by whom?

Sven and everyone else! Did you see the similarities in the photo that Swanky posted and the photo I posted?
It's the same tiki in both pictures and it looks like the same floor! Both of these were quite possibly the product of the same shoot! I can't believe we just discovered it.
You be the judge.

Almost Scary!!! It would be interesting to find out who the photographer was and whether or not he did a whole slew of similar shoots (much like Octavio has).
I guess we must keep in mind that Basement Tiki Bars, in the 50s and 60s, were the domain of the Man of the House. I don't suppose many housewives were encouraged to set up their own (or even to collaborate in the hobby save from drinking a bit and cleaning a lot).
Has anyone else noticed that we have recently lost another vestige of that wonderful era? They recently changed the shape of the Michelob bottle! It had been designed, in the 50s, to resemble the female figure. Now it just looks like, well... A Beer Bottle.
Seems we lose a bit more each and every day.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This is one of the most entertaining threads I've read on this forum.I can feel the recriminations coming, but a little prurience is essential to maintain one's sanity.
Given the ominous events that I see coming-I think we all should take a moment to reflect on the beautiful, pleasant things in life.
When it comes to beauty-Hawaii and the female form top my list. In that order.

Anyone know the month and year that this pic appeared in Playboy?
Also, I seem to remember a 50's or 60's Playboy that has some pics of gals frolicking in a pool with some Witco stuff (masks if I recall) in the background - anyone know the month and year of the pic?

Tikibars,
I think you're refering to the picture of Hugh's pool and babes that's in the BOT.

James, check the Book of Tiki, page 43. Ken (keigs20) has reproduced one of those masks that you see behind Hugh Hefner & the Bunnies.

I think you'd be barking up the wrong tree if you decide to wade through old Playboys looking for this set (Though there are undoubtably worse ways to fill your spare hours). I'm pretty sure that this pic comes from some cheesy 60's nylon/stag mag, though it's highly probable that the same photos appeared in a variety of mags.
