It seems certain that the bank I bought in the late 60s from a Fedmart was intended to be a tiki. It was in a big display with other tiki and Hawaiian stuff including Coco Joe's-type lava sculptures and coconut monkeys. To me the crest looks more Polynesian than Aztec/Incan/Mayan. That said, I do think I remember that it was marked Westwood, and we know what a mishmash of styles they used for their tiki mugs. |
