Thanks for the request. I guess you are talking about the article by Mr. Balak in Tiki Magazine Summer 2010. This is an very interesting part of research and it was great that the author was able to take a look at the correspondence of West with Oceanic Arts. I guess I will use the article too, of course, with all correct citations. I would also be interested to get some information about the catalogue of Tiki Junction, which is featured in this article. Is JP also on Tiki Central? Please drop me a line.

Anyway, I only can work with the stuff I that is available here in Austria - and that isn't quite much - as I can't afford a trip to sunny California yet. But one thing is for sure; I just read a few academic papers that were written here that deal with the topic Tiki and your publications are just essential. But I am sure you already know that :) But let me ask - who is Andres Bumatay? Sounds Hungarian to me...
