My new book will have a photo I took of the Hawaiian Eye office sign in it, now in posession of Doug "Moke" Mossman, the "guard" and Hawaiian advisor on the show. He had also lifted the original logo Tiki off the studio lot when the show closed, but it has since rotted away in his yard in Waikiki. Also in the book: A cool photo of the cast of Surfside Six in the "Boom Boom Room", THEIR local Tiki Bar.
