Aloha Jhoes Palm Springs Mug easter island head - Collecting Tiki

When Bongofury brought his into town for me to photograph it, we pulled it out at the Tiki Ti and Mike Sr. remembered that he had one at home, that he and his dad got when visiting Aloha Jhoe's when he was a boy. It is now proudly displayed in the back bar. It has no name, or Sascha B. signature, and it sits on a round ceramic platform. There is also a no name version of it from Sascha B.'s studio, but it has gold and weird colors, no Tiki earth tones, it was too gay for my taste. ...but the Aloha Jhoe's version as shown above, that is, perhaps, my holy grail!
