I'd taken a break from serious thrifting and antiquing but I did a little bit of hunting the past week and a half and found:

A two foot tall moai torch lamp. He's made of fiberglass or something similar and he has a metal screw top that opens to a container that holds your torch oil. I first spotted him months ago but he was finally marked to half off. He's not vintage btw but he was in an antique store. Also got an old polynesian painting with some guys in outrigger canoes and a hula wahine in a grass skirt. The natives are dancing restless around a fire in the background.

A Les Baxter and two Esquivels in near mint condition at a sweet price. The mug looks just like Cool Manchu's "The Tikis" mug that he put on ebay recently but it has no markings. Got it real cheap cuz it's got a ding in the back. Displays nice though.

EDIT: I forgot, I also got a tablet of stationery from the Mai Kai. There's a little scene from the restaurant on the bottom of each page.
