TikiShaker,
Nice ad. Would be great to see a close-up of that A-frame hut.
Here is another ad.

I just got this postcard from the Bali Hai. It shows a fairly large thatched hut structure extending off the side of the main building that I never noticed in the other photos.
Also saw this unusual multi-colored matchbook on ebay a while back.

I think it looks like a red one sun faded in spots. It reminds me of record collections with the spines a lightened color from sun bleaching over the years. Maybe red spots were where it was covered by something, like maybe other matchbooks in a jar while the sun shone on it.
Here's a real yellow one not posted here yet:

And another colorful one:
This one must have been from back in the age of aquarius.
Buzzy Out!

For you archivists out there, here's a clearer scan of one that DC posted earlier:
And another one I didn't see here, the double goof on the roof -same on both sides one:
Buzzy Out!

A picture of the Bali Hai before it became the Bali Hai. As noted on the photograph, this is the Hut on Shelter Island in 1954.

Picked up another older postcard with a nice shot of the Goof on the roof.
