Does Tiki Style censor the more suggestive prints in order to appease Walmart, etc.?

Just to clear up that misunderstanding: NO.

The TIKI STYLE Icon has all nudity intact, and includes the original "phallic symbol" definition (No.3) of Tiki. This, and any images with bare breasts were taken out only for the OLD NAVY version of Tiki style, as described in a previous post:

"...One last anecdote from the book publishing world:
Taschen made a deal with OLD NAVY, who wants to sell the Tiki Icon at their stores, plus some greeting cards (12 cards with 4 motifs from the BOT).
What irony though that I, Mr European free thinker nudist camp kid, was asked to supply alternative images for all frontal nudity pix to make the Old Navy copies family friendly. My pal Jeff Berry rightfully quipped “That proofs what B.S. their name is, would they really be Old Navy they would dig just that very stuff!” So soon (supposedly in March) you will see another version of "Tiki Style", with the same title but altered cover, and 9 new (and “decent”) images at your local hip bargain clothing retailer."

Does anybody have the two different versions of TIKI STYLE to post them next to each other?
