That's how they could be "from the original Trader Vic's" and also "bought at Trader Vic's in Emeryville". I was not doubting their heritage, I am just really curious to see a photo of the Oakland exterior. The rendering in the BOT shows several cabin-like buildings, obviously added on to the original Hinky Dinks. I do not know when those additions happened, but those doors could be from then.
