Sunday was slow and void of tiki, but here are some of the items I found...
Treasure Craft "Hang Ten" with "Hawaii Tiki Isle" on the back and some hula girl and uke player cake toppers.
Hapa-Haole Hulas-The Kahauanu Lake Trio.
From The Start-Maile Aloha Singers.
Dreams of Old Hawaii-The Waiakea Hawaiians.
Hawaiian Country-Melveen Leed.
The Magic Ukulele of Roy Smeck.
Four 78 RPM records. Two Island Recording Studio with Singing Bamboo and Puamana on one and E Kuu Lei and Mele Hula on the other, 49th State Hawaii Record with Fireman Hula on one side and Manu O-O on the other and Wakiki Records with Lahela Kuu Pokii on one side and Hookipa Park Hula on the other.
Perhaps on of the most unusual finds I have come across is this October 1949 Profitable Hobbies magazine which features a cover with Eli Hedley and a story entitled "First Family of Beachcombing". The article has eight pictures and a couple of pages about Eli and his family and highlights the upcoming book by his daughter Marilyn to be published in Fall of 1950 "Daddy is a Beachcomber". Pretty cool, although no mention of tiki anywhere in the article.
That's all folks...
