Thrift store find, with questions - Collecting Tiki

I found a set at a local thrift store, two chairs, two love seats, and a coffee table. Here are the pics... The cushion isn't stained, just cat hair. They have a little plaque that says: Ritts co. Tropitan Los Angeles, CA They are stamped: Copyright 1951 Herbert Ritts Inc Los Angeles, CA Cost for the set, $225 What can anyone tell me about it. Regardless of whether I got a good deal (which I think I did), it's going to look great in the soon-to-be constructed Tiki Bar. TIA.
