A regular sidewalk seller here on the Drive in Van. had some stuff out undercover from the rain & after scoring a 1952 Theatre Arts w/Aud. Hepburn on the cover ($2), I noticed something rather tiki-like and familiar peeking out from some large manila envelopes... ...two London Hilton T.Vic's menus, years unsure - copyright 1962 w/a DGS 10M.3.63(which signifies....?) in the rum-barrel & a copyright 1951 in the brown cover. Gladly handed over $8 for the pair after suppressing a spasmodic irregular heartbeat. The two statues gracing the sides aren't at all tiki but they wouldn't stay out of the picture. $5 for the both of those.
