Is there a soon to be tiki museum in the offing? Are you planning to open your own tiki themed bar? Come on brudah spill it. I don't know if Frank will answer, but I can say we've talked about putting together a book or website aimed at sharing the history in his collection. Lots of ideas, but, in the end, they cost more money by far than they will make, and its a lot of work. I dare say that if there was an opportunity for a Tiki ephemera museum, he'd be ready to help.
