There have been a few mentions of finding copies of Trader Vic's Pacific Island Cookbook (published 1968). And we've talked about these ~ New Book - Trader Vic's Tiki Party and "Retro Luau" ~ new book but before food stylists took glossy pictures, and graphics were cut n pasted or were made to look retro, there were these guides "for the many folks who are dreaming of coming to the islands some day, and for those who know darn well that they can never quite make it!" neither brochure is dated ~ its a tiny portion of the stuff i bought as a big lot of tiki mugs and ephemera (yes, im working on posting all of it...)
