My friend asked me to get info on this carved tiki. It was purchased in 1958 in Hawaii and made by prisoners.

So, how many prisoners does it take to carve a Tiki? Really, I'd be interested to know why prisoners are carving tikis? No need for license plates in Hawaii?

It has been inside most of the time.

I hope it's still kept inside and not out by the front door. He'll last a lot longer out of the elements and away from tiki-nappers.

Nice find!
