Been a little quiet from me lately. Not that I've not been hunting, just been busy moving. I'm mostly settled in now, and here's a record of a couple of good finds lately, mostly flea markets--
First, what looks sort of like a candy bowl, interesting wood grain, sort of Witco-esque, but I'm not sure who made it, no identifying marks that I can find. Anyone know anything about this?

A matchbook from the Kono Hawaii, my local (and defunct) tiki paradise:

Sorry about the glare.
A trader vic's mug from Hawaii. He was only $8 but he's got some chips off the rim, and a couple of hairlines. Still, for $8, he looks good on a shelf.

And last, but not least, a Strikow decanter. Didn't come with a cork, but I found a few laying around that fit, the best fit is actually from a small bottle of 10 cane rum.

He's got sherry inside right now, I've been using it for Fogcutters.
Also found a TV fogcutter mug last weekend for $10. New, with the 1993 date in the bottom. Got a chip on the rim, but it's still okay for drinking fogcutters!
