For whatever it's worth (probably quite a lot, actually, in more ways than ONE) a very dear friend of mine was one of the fortunate folks who attended that legendary Don The Beachcomber auction and, as a result, still has a large amount of the interior decor of the Marina Don's! Currently in storage, he's got a number of float lights, a slew of the framed celebrity and party photos that lined some of the walls, and, coolest of all (among lots of other cool stuff), he's got a bunch of the towering, intricately carved wooden wall panels which Oceanic Arts made for the restaurant way back when! Amazing, or WHAT? Anyway, he seems open to the idea of selling his Beachcomber collection, though I'm sure it's gonna be for a heckuva lot more clams than it cost him at the auction when they practically couldn't GIVE the stuff away!
