Thanks for posting that, I will have drive out and see it in person sometime. Obviously you would not be able to get any photos inside the casino, but was there much TiPSY factor to the interior? Hawaiian Gardens was incorporated in 1964 right in the middle of the tiki/polypop heyday. I've searched the TC and Critiki archives and come up with nothing in the vintage era back when the city was founded... Except for what you guys just posted (and the reference to the old "bamboo shack refreshment stand"). Just seems odd, but maybe there's nothing more to it than that. Anyways, mahalo for the pics!
