The 3rd is the Idol's Cast, not the Mystery Bowl which you are thinking. The Idol's Cast has been going around $350-400. The Mystery Bowl is the $1000+ one. The first 2 are very interesting because they look similar to the Holy Grail Kahiki Mystery Bowl that is pictured on the older drink menus and in some images from the early days. Those tiki pedestals may mean they are by that roiginal maker. And maybe, jsut maybe, that original bowl is out there and marked Kahiki and will surface one day. Then you will see a record. Maybe $2000. Not exactly the tikis on this bowl, but closer than the Hoffman stuff that is more common... Your key to Beachbum Berry's books. Login and start concocting!
