Waitoma Grotto - Holly, MI - Collecting Tiki

It has the signature hei tiki logo and that airbrushed finish under the glaze typical of Jackson China pieces. It is a large plate - a full 12" in diameter. I bought this from the same eBay seller who sold me the postcards in 2004. He told me that at the local Holly, MI swap meet, one dealer had been bringing in Hawaiian Gardens merchandise week after week to sell. He evidently bought the plates, postcards, teacups, etc from the restaurant when it closed. My eBay seller bought them from the swapmeet dealer, (after he had built his own complete set of china).
