I'm glad to see that the original mugs are still fairly affordable. I was reading in another thread about the Mystery Bowl and how they can go for over 1000 dollars... I doubt I'll ever get one of those

Hey Ratzaroony, I was dead on. That mug you showed sold for $96.68.
With $5.00 bucks in shipping.

Here is a Columbus Dispatch insert done by the Kahiki
for the Sunday paper. It is eight pages front and back included.
The date on it is Sept 24 1961.
I think the first one pictured here is the older of the two.
Both have the same inside, With just a few differences.
Both Bill And Lee Henry said they tossed out boxes of these
and menus.

This menu was up on ebay. It was from 1964. I almost won the auction 
It went from $5.00 to $52.00 in the last 30 seconds.

Someone named Kohalacharms. They have an ooga-mooga profile, and a lot of tiki mugs, so at least it went to a serious collector

Ok, So this Kahiki thing just gets more and more weird.
I have a lot of Kahiki stuff. I got it by being at the right place
at the right time. Luck? Karma? Who knows.
But last week I was in the Columbus Dispatch in an article about the Kahiki by Joe Blundo.
The writer of that article calls me up to give me the name of a guy
who has some Kahiki items. He worked there from the start.
So I call this guy and we start talking (he has no Kahiki stuff by the way)
This guy was one of the people that made the lights, ashtrays,
AND get this the lamps that were on the tables.
I had just got back from a mold making place buying stuff to make THOSE lamps!
Will meet with this guy in the next week.
Then will know the rest of the story.

Just wanted to show you the shades for the lamps.
Well the silk screens for the shades.
I just finished them.
Next I mold the base.

Also i'm going to show the rest of the porgress on my lights thread.
In creating tiki, (other cratfs) as that's where this should be.
