I'm sure most people have seen 'em before so I won't bother with a pic of it, but I found a Don the Beachcomber coconut at the thrift store yesterday. Cost me $1!!!!!!!
I've found the other items as well:
A plate from the Kona Kai Club in San Diego. I don't know much about it except that there's a recipe in Taboo Table from a place by the same name. The logo in the recipe appears the same as that on the plate. I'm not sure what the plate is made of, but here's a picture:

On the back is a mark:
There's a picture of what looks like a blacksmith, from the waste up, holding a plate up. The type under the image says "craft american by Bon Chef Inc. Kenilworth, N- 0----. The dashes represent letters or numbers that are too worn to read. I assume the stuff that's sort of worn off should be "NJ 0-023. I'm guessing it's a New Jersey zip code. Not sure what the second digit of the zip should be.
The plate cost me $5. Feels like it's pewter or something.

The second thing I found is a glass from a place called the Ancient Mariner:

Sort of looks like a Honi Honi glass. I don't have any other information about the establishment, nor have I ever seen any other mugs or glasses with this imprint. Time to do some research I guess. Glass cost me 50cents. Sweet!
