Wow Trav, that's awesome. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, congrats.
Now, we need a photo of the rare Mai Kai Drum Mug displayed in its new home in the Hukilau Lounge.

Thanks DC, BK and Liz.
Dusty here it is behind the bar on the end where I mix my cocktails. A bit of a Mai Kai theme going on. I have been to the Mai Kai in the past and can't wait to get back but the home bar will have to do for now.

??? I would say much more so than in CA, which has been grazed bare by hardcore Tiki collectors for over a decade now.

Obviously it's been too long since my last visit to Kalamazoo, your bottles have RUM in them...OMG.
Great find and congrats on saving yet another piece of history.
Now, mix up a perfectly balanced, exhaustively researched icy cold cocktail and document the whole process, I want to see action shots!
