Another week, another pile of stuff makes its way into my life.
My first two finds are kind of interesting ones which I am seeking any other morsels of info that any of you collectors may have on them.
The first one is this tiki:
I carried it around forever thinking it was wood. Closer inspection showed it to be a resin casting. It's 16" tall, by 4" wide, and 3" deep.
When I bought it, the guy told me it was from Alaska. I laughed internally because I thought that he was confusing totem poles with tikis. Then I turned it over and read this:
Creed Totems, Anchorage Alaska. The only info I found on Creed was that they made resin castings of Native American art and they were from Alaska.
Any other info on Creed out there?
Second is a mug.
Says Pat's on the front
Jeanne ceramics hawaii on the bottom
As well as Jeanne Molds with a date of either: 1999, 1989, or 1987
Most probably pat's at Punalu'u. I know Pat's had a Daga mug. No other mention of this mug or maker that I could find.
Anyone know more about this mug or maker?
Now the easy stuff:
A pair of Strikow decanters
dark one from 1958
White one from 1961
Maoi tissue box holder:
Air New Zealand HeiTiki pendant
Large size Trader Vic's Menehunes stirrer stick
Some Hawaii postcards
My favorite is this one:
Funny thing is, that's how I spend my leisure time too!
