FANTASTIC stuff!!! I'm thrilled a tikiphile has this stuff and it didn't all end up in a garbage can 64 years ago. With the ads dated from 1942, this place must qualify as Pre-Tiki on BigBro's chronology scale?

Ditto! AND these pieces aptly prove my "Evolution of Polynesian Pop" theory: In all these photos and graphics there is not a Tiki in sight.
The fact that these places qualify as Pre-Tiki does not make these artifacts any less interesting, of course, they are rarer since they are older. They MUST be from a relative of the owners!...?
