Trader Vic's Warehouse sale returns! - General Tiki

This Black Velvet painting was the first thing I bought. 37" X 25" plus the frame. I believe it to be a Leeteg ( I will try to add info in the Velvet thread). There was also a Charles McPhee velvet that I don't know if anyone purchased. I also got this solid teak chair from the San Francisco Trader Vic's for $50.00. They had some really big (16-20') Tikis in the 800-1000 range plus the vintage tikis (16') from S.F. TV for 2800-3200. I bought a couple of Tikis including a 9' pole from T.V. Osaka, Japan for $300.00. Some newer netted 15" floats with holes for lights, T.V. bartender shirts (men's & women's) and some ceramic stuff ( sugar rum pots, shotgun mugs, conch shell for 10-12 bucks). The girls also gave away tapa wrapping paper, t-shirts, swizzles, etc with purchases. There was a mix of vintage and newer stuff from the 80s and 90s but most came from a Trader Vic's. It was fun to look at and hear the stories as to where things came from. I was told some of the newer carvings come from Bali, Fiji, and Tonga.
