Thx for the tip Basement Kahuna! I broke out my B.O.T. and found a pic. of a very similar mask on pg.253. He's the 2nd from right mask on the orange background middle photo. The photo of the Kau tag on pg.252 is almost identical to my tag as well. I don't have a digital camera so I'll have to scan some photos. I'm going to try and learn any provenance I can about the piece as it's from a local estate sale which also included carvings from Iryan Java and possibly an old tiki bar. The piece definitely looks more impressive than the B/W photo in the B.O.T.
Thx again 4 the replies/ tips.
