Got my package last week, but was totally, insanely busy and did not have a chance to post pics until now...

WOW, what a haul! Mucho mahalos to Tiki Shaker... it was an endless box of tiki treasure!

Here's the whole package:

And some of the highlights:

A mug from Daytona's Hawaiian Inn, a huge volcano bowl, an ashtray from the Lanai in San Matteo, matches from The Outrigger, The Luau, Kelbos Fairfax, and (non-tiki, but cool none the less) Pie King in Arcadia.

Ephemera and cordials!

A box of vintage Jaquin's liqueurs (and I cannot tell a lie... one was cherry flavored, in a George Washington shaped bottle!), two small vintage magazines packed with cool graphics and great cocktail recipes, and Puerto Rican Rumsters, awesome little cut out figures used for decorating cocktail glasses (and as I'm typing this, I just realized there's rum recipes on the backs of those, too!)

Plus paper parasols, a vintage fish-shaped bottle opener, a tiki candle, swizzles, candy canes, Christmas party straws, and interspersed among the packing popcorn- snowflakes, ornaments, and tinsel, making the whole package like a snowbank packed with tropical treats!

...and a paper lantern with a festive holiday greeting from Tiki Shaker... Mahalos again!!!!
