Hard dates to any of the visuals are needed! I for one really appreciate your re-opening the question. Not because I am quoted, but because this is STILL an unsolved riddle that should be on the forefront of any serious Tiki collector's mind. But the lack of reaction to your thread, and not the slightest activity in the advancement of this age-old mystery by any readers here, seem like just another nail in the coffin of Tiki Central.
