Swanky's photo (above) is the "Tonga" mug I have always thought of when I see the Honolulu Vic's menu. Now, I see this mug (below) listed on that evil auction site and I suppose it is the Tonga. It just looks a bit different to my untrained dilettante eye. I recall a different maker for "Swanky's Tonga mug", was it PP or Louie B? I have got to start paying better attention.
 
If one is so inclined, one may bid on the above mentioned mug via this link:
It's been six months she hasn't shut up once
That glaze on the latter mug is familiar. I recall some mugs from Hawaii that I once owned which had a simlar glaze, but they were most cetainly not Vic's pieces. Just free associating here folks, no charge.

did some of the more known mugs get glazed like this as years past?? I Picked up a pair of parrot mugs that look just like the OMC mugs but in a similar type glaze but in yellow and brown. The bottoms are left rough like these, and the logo is unreadable.
