The large map case hanging over the stairwell has a missing tiki figurine for Easter Island. The missing tiki figure is is presumably some kind of moai. Does anybody have vintage pix of case when the tiki was there? What did it look like? When was it removed... and why? (yeah, it probably broke, but the 'and why' sounds more dramatic, don't you think?) And finally, since Mr. Bali Hai was restored, will the missing Tiki ever be replaced? Hmmmm...
