Sorry, never heard about the Fenton Estate, but that's one nice Tiki. It looks like a Hawaiian tourist carving to me, but from a time when there was some effort put into airport art. And it looks like a not the run-of-the-mill carving, but a single sort of gallery piece, that had a more than 5.- bucks price tag on it even back then. So maybe the Fentons were Polynesiacs that collected Tikis as fine art.... [ Edited by: bigbrotiki on 2003-02-05 23:59 ] |
