My lucky streak seems to be continuing (knock on Treasure Craft-simulated wood).

My finds for the past month:

A Kahlua Hut mug and an Al Harrington.

A quick stop at a thrift turned up these two, large Westwoods.

Swap meet finds of four shotglass-sized Westwoods. Curously, Finkdaddy found a identical set not too long ago.

Trader Vic's Chicago menu.

A menu from The Tahitian.

A Latitude 20 barrel and a Harvey's Hula Girl mug (common, but I did't have this in my collection).

A drink menu from The Tahitian in fair condtion. It was folded (probably by the person who snaked it from The Tahitian). It also was water damaged, and there is some dry mold inside and the pages were stuck together (keep your off-color comments to yourself!). I am going to try to clean and repair this.

Inside view of the above menu. Note mold and damaged pages.

Matchbooks from: Zombie Village, Oakland, CA (2); South Seas Restaurant, Hollywood (2); The Royal Tahitian, Ontario, CA; Don the Beachcomber, at the Sahara Hotel, Las Vegas; Sams Seafood, Surfside, CA; and an old one from The Tahiti Bar, Philadelphia, PA.
