WHOA!!! Line for line, that is the actual tiki from the BOT! Sven, good eyes! That is one of my favorite tikis that Barney West carved, you are super lucky to own it! My last mug "PuPu"(below) was definitelly influenced by Barney's tiki in the middle, right next to yours, only I didn't realize it until this post. I've always loved thinking of Barney West carving tikis near the docks, living like a salty craggy beachcomber.
Was the original photograph from OA from that Tiki Junction shot, or was it a post card? |
