Finally ran across one of these little Tiki Hibachis. Still has the interior cup and the grill rack.

The other things I found on this trip were all sort of travel education oriented. First are 5 different film strips in their cannisters. I remember our teachers back in elementary school would sometimes use these sort of things in class. I don't know if I have the proper slide projector to view these but I held them up to the light to make sure I had the right ones in each container.

I also found these two hardback books. They are from a series called Guided Tours of the World - a colorslide travel program by PANORAMA.

Here you can see the 2 slide panels and the record which accompanies each book. I have no idea what kind of viewer is required to see these slides but it hardly matters because each slide appears in the book as a print.
The South Seas book is narrated by George Sanders who I remember as Mr. Freeze of the Batman TV series in the 60's.
The Hawaii book is narrated by Arthur Godfrey.

Next I have a scan of the best 2 chapters in the South Seas book. Oh, these books are copyrighted 1960 and 1961 respectively.
