Not that different from the Slit Drums in front of the Samoan Seas apartments in San Pedro:

Or the ones at Disney World in Florida:

They look cartoony - but they're probably more authentic than we think. Wonder where the set designer for "Lost In Space" got some New Hebrides slit drums?

On a slightly related note, when my mom waitressed at the coffee shop in the Art-Deco May Co. department store on Wilshire, back in the 1960s, the cast of "Lost In Space" were her regular customers. They would take a break from shooting the show and have lunch together, (all of them but the robot). I think she still has a signed cast photo they gave her.
