Yikes... this one belongs in 'The Gallery of Regrettable Tiki Paint Jobs', poor fellah. Nice shoes though.

This is a find that unfortunately didn't come home with me. I found this guy last week in an auction that included a few vintage Black collectibles. I was hoping that astute buyers would recognize his true identity and shy away. I was wrong. He was bid up far higher than his home-made ceramics class status warranted (IMHO). Oh well. He stands about 18 inches tall, is unmarked, and yes, that's a lighter in his head.


So, be watchful all those who seek tiki . . They are starting to wear disguises!
