I've sold a couple of these, I'm only selling 2 more and then I'm completely done because I'm keeping the remaining two for myself. For me, these things are amazing because they are in immaculate condition and I'm actually including an original swizzle stick with this cup (all the way from 1967)

check out another picture of the cups and some other cool photos of paraphernalia that I've collected about the mauna loa. http://picasaweb.google.com/jtmack/MaunaLoa

Whats just amazing about this restaraunt is that its a peice of detroit history that has long since disappeared. Opened in 1967, it cost an incredible $21 million to build and open! Unfortunately it only stayed open for 8 months before closing.

I've done an entire write up on the cups and their awesome history at the mauna loa right here: http://www.mickings.com/tiki/tiki_sell.htm

Even if youre not interested in bidding on this, at least take a look at the awesome history behind this mysterious and amazing restaraunt, I promise its a real interesting read!
