Actually, all these dates, with Silverline's Moai mold in Tiki Finds dated 1963 also, again confirm my theory that the core years of Tiki Modern style, the real explosion of creativity, came out of the Zeitgeist of a very brief period in the late 50s to early 60s. To hone it down to the nucleus years, I would say 1959 to 1964. This was the peak period, where the epitome of the style was formed, the years before being the build up, and the years after being the continuation and implementation of the models of the style.
