Recent score on ebay from Canada .
Do not know where this came from, however I know these were used at the
Beachcomber and @ Trader Vic's in Vancouver.

Hey 1961surf, Great find!! The Beachcomber Restaurants that were in Canada used these lamps for sure. There is photographic evidence and a few are in collections where they are verified as coming right from the restaurant.

Trader Vic's Vancouver though would be new to me. I have never seen these from a Vic's. Did you happen to have any additional info. or pic's about these being used at Vic's?? The Kon Tiki chain used these lamps as well so possibly it came from there as there was one in Montreal.

Awesome find and I don't think you will have a problem making that beauty complete!
Mahalo, TabooDan
