My personal quest involves searching for old wooden roller-coaster footage. You would never guess that in the past ten years I've been fortunate to find stuff 40-60 years old in forgotten stashes around the country. Years may pass with nothing - then BAM! - a whole slew of worthy stuff will surface and find its way to me for eventual inclusion into our national archives. I would imagine tiki parallels amusement parks as its so film worthy, especially if the photographer was on vacation capturing memories of (or) for thier family. Brilliant find here. Thanks for posting. G
