Thank you all again for your warm welcome and kind words. I had some time yesterday afternoon and looked through the Xerox copies of the old photographs I mentioned in an earlier post. Wow, that sure brought back some memories. I am trying to figure out a way to provide these photographs to you, or at least copies of them. The Xerox copies I have are useless for your needs, but I know that the originals exist.

I had a much older half-brother (we shared the same father but had different mothers) who had a lot of the old Lobster House and Trader Glick's stuff. I remember looking through it all when I visited with him in early 1993. He was 66 y/o at the time so I doubt he is still alive. But you never know. Surely his personal belongings went somewhere, I'll just have to find out where.

I also know that my older brother had a lot of stuff since he was the eldest child of my parents and the family believed in that "first-born-son" thing. However, he died in a car accident more than a year ago and my family hasn't had any contact with me since 2005. Maybe my younger brother got his stuff. Who really knows.

If you guys can let me figure out a way to make this happen, I'll see what I can do about helping you find some of these things you are looking for. I understand how obsessions are unexplainable and can become a way of life, I just never thought about Tiki's being one of those things. Mine happens to be Hammond organs. Yes, the big ones. I currently own 25 of them. Anyway, I'm getting off track here.....

Give me a little time to think and I'll see if I can help with your search. Until then....
