Hey guys, thanks so much for your responses on this post! I'm thrilled to hear that other people remember Kelbo's restaurant and its fascinating decor, and that there are those willing to go out of their way to preserve it. Most of all, I am glad to finally find out the name of the artist who created the amazing Kelbo's window. RevBamboo, thanks so much for providing a name!

P.S. I live in LA and would be thrilled to come by and see some photos. Where is the store located?

P.P.S. It's a mystery to my why I've always been drawn to vintage Hawaiiana. I'm 26 and by all accounts should be a strict adherent to big-box decorating stores like Bed, Bath & Beyond and Pottery Barn, but frankly I hate that sh*t. I much prefer the originality and whimsicality of yesteryear!
