I was interested in this one but it was too rich for my current circumstances. Still, it was a bargain -- when Emma One Shoe was selling off Beachcomber items from an estate sale about a year ago the menus went for considerably more. I think the seller would have had more interest if he/she had put "Tiki" somewhere in the description. I won that one - I thought I got a steal, until Sabu let me know they guy has been selling them for a while.... Oh well - I still think it is a beautiful menu, and that it is confirmed from the 60s, is even better.... [ Edited by: Tangaroa on 2005-03-15 10:28 ]
