A few matchbooks from a collectors show in Glendale, CA. Mostly toys but I did pick up an old 60s skateboard and these matchbooks.

Some fairly common ones which I didn't have and a few odd ones like the Hawaiian Gardens and The Tropics in Denver. The only one I can't seem to find anything about is one from a place called the Temple Bar or Bombo in Oakland. It has a weird shaking glass on it with the words "Bombo" (?) and "carefree." Maybe the name of the house drink and it's desired effect?

Notice how the 'TE' in Templebar is emphasized? I think Templebar is the Bombo's phone number prefix - as in TEmplebar 9805 - not the name of the bar/restaurant.
