Not sure, but I would. This mug is indeed rare, perhaps one of the rarest of the rare, as in Pittsburgh-style rare for you steak enthusiasts. From the Kalua Room in Seattle, an interesting representation of a PNG drum, complete with finely detailed bird. I've seen one, maybe two, of these in all my weeks of collecting/selling tiki mugs. Super rare and this one is in fine shape, better than mine! This is where you click to see the cool mug's auction listing! For all you mug weirdos out there, especially you "completists" or Seattle fans, this mug is one of the reasonably pious grails. Some could argue "Tiki?", but I would be firmly in the "Si, tiki" camp (sipping a Navy Grog and anticipating big sums thrown at this rarity). No, it's not my mug. Ain't no way would I sell mine, it's way too Pittsburgh-style, amigo. Bad to the bone, Delaware destroying midnite
