TikiGabe661 here's our advice for the Rose Bowl sale. Get there before it opens. Pay the higher price to get in. Do Not bother to walk the booths around the Bowl.

When you go through the gate turn LEFT and go directly to the antique sale area.

We saw tiki bars for sale super cheap that we couldn't bring home. We got lots of small wonderful tiki items. We found one shaker there for $6 that we have only seen in one collection. It's like the Trader Vic's shaker but small and it has a necklace. It's a favorite piece in our collection. http://www.claytikis.com

Go slow and look carefully. Take bags and bubble wrap with you. We had the best time. Wear a hat, long sleeves and sunscreen.If you still have energy you may walk the booths around the Bowl but we agree with Buzzy there was nothing of interest to be found there for a tiki collector. However there is always a first time. Wendy

If you find the mate we sure would like to buy it. If someone has a set for sale let us know.
