Great finds everyone! Here's a few I've picked up over the past few months. You may have seen one or two of them, but I've been cataloging my collection so I have better pics to upload. First up, a Orchids Head Hunter & pineapple. I recieved the Head Hunter as a gift and I scored the pinapple (two actually) at an antique store that specialized in kitch. Sadly it was their only mugs and anything polynesian. I should stop in there to check up for witco or more mugs. Next is an unmarked one & shown in TQ, but no maker. The other is a Kahiki coconut (scored both for 99 cents a piece).
I know everyone has seen the plastic ones, I picked a half dozen up at a thrift store (unused) for 25 cents a piece. I was pleased to get these to use for kids drinks for luaus. The other one is unknown and unmarked. I assume it's new, but for a buck I didn't care. And finnaly, two glasses. These may have been posted when I first started TC, but here is a better view of them. Left is a Ports o' Call high ball glass (one of my first finds) and the one on the right is a Hukilau hurricane glass (they still use this particular design?) |
