My urban archeology had led me to the owners son, Ed Keough who had the fiberglass Tiki poles for sale in Brooklyn for $75 each. (Good deal considering they went for $204.51 each in 1992) Ed told me that his father opened it in the late 60's along with another resturant called Lamps of China. I wish I could have see them in action back then! I thought they were made by Orchids but I couldn't confirm until now, ma halo! :)
