Moxy & stupidity on both sign thefts. Obviously done by a team of idiots with electronic and metal skills. So sad to be this dishonest and really what are you going to do with them...keep them in a basement that only the thieves can come to and view the deceased!!! You certainly couldn't spiff up your personal lounge with these items. Enjoy your paranoia arseholes!!!

Thanks for setting me straight. I would never in a million years realized that these signs would be so big and so well known that they cannot be enjoyed in a typical tiki lounge. Of course, that leaves only one explanation. The thefts were obviously done by a evil mega-wealthy person who is trying to corner the retro-item black market (aka James Bond villain) A few Las Vegans come to mind - Steve Wynn, Sheldon Addleson and Tony Hsieh. Of the three, I would bet on Tony. I think he was also in Modesto a while back, about the same time some tikis disappeared there.
