Howdy, TS Yes, that's a fantastic shot - probably one of the best vintage photos showing a tiki-mug in use. It comes from the Life Magazine Photo Archives. Back in 2008 we started a thread and scoured almost every tiki-related image we could from that archive. Here's the results: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=30495&forum=1 You can see your photo down near the bottom of the first page. The restaurant is the Islander in Los Angeles - part of the old Restaurant Row on La Cienega Blvd. The mug was made by Spurlin ceramics specifically for the Islander: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=35643&forum=5&vpost=535519 |
