The "Quarterdeck Seafood and Grog was in Oxnard and Lahaina. I have not been able to find any info on this establishment. The TV's San Francisco/Emeryville matchbook was in such good condition I thought it must be a repro or else the locations were alive and well. Then I noticed the lack of tel.area codes. The address also reflects the "old" S.F. location which pretty much thrived for forty years. The Scottsdale "menehune" matchbook was ratty and the guts are gone. I grabbed it up anyway cuz the graphics are cool. Cheers
