A piece of British Tiki at last - Collecting Tiki

A few months back, I got a few screen grabs from the Beachcomber movie & can't remember if I posted them or not, so this is as good a place as any. The footage itself is very blurry, so I've tried just to focus in on the barware: Is that a Tiki mug or just a salt shaker? Well that's a Tiki bowl for certain! Bar sign Who was that sailor? With the infamous parrot! This album was recorded at the Beachcomber - I think it was the house band for a while. Trader Woody
