I was mesmorized by that mural--I thought it was the coolest thing! I still kick myself for not going to the auction!! Oof!

same here Bruce! I should have gone to the auction. I knew about it & was planning on going & just flaked out. kills me to think about it now.

Hi Randy- I've seen those shakers before. I think they are crazy cool, dont have them, would love to have them & I personally hope they are, but I'm not sure they are from this Lanai.
I cant confirm it by any means, just my gut feeling.
The absence of any other markings & the different font vs. the bamboo lettering on the logo throws up a red flag for me.

Sabu- I do like the whole strange tiki style/Barney West connection, that feels kinda plausible....but then again, didnt the Pub Tiki use the same style shakers as well?
Just my 2 cents & I hope I'm wrong!
