I've not seen a piece like that, Ky-Tiki... very nice. Do you think that's the original fabric?

I have seen quite a few of these here on the West Coast but I have not seen any with material as a backing before. I do not think it is original but can't guarantee it.
There is also a matching pineapple wall hanger with a man in the center playing the ukulele. I have seen these in various sizes from about 14"-24" in height. These were made in the Philippines and some have the small white stickers on the back. The Hula dancer ones are cool.

Welcome Ky-Tiki to TC! Good to have another BC'er on here!

Mahalo, TabooDan

Thank you, Bongo and TabooDan. I'm quite sure the fabric (heavy felt) isn't original but I do like the way it looks. Good info this one and the companion piece, Dan. Definitely something I'll be keeping an eye out for in my sojourns.
