I didn't really go hunting last week, so here's mostly this week's stuff:

Stabby Tahitian tiki thing:

(I'm pretty sure it's a)Soloman Islands guy:

HIP guy:

Hollywood Tropics matchbook:

Two Hawaiian dolls, palm tree, and a sand base in a bag

Ceramic Tiki lamp:

I looked for info on TC about it and couldn't find another tiki like this one on a lamp yet. The lamp fixtures are not connected to the tiki. The tiki's just glued on to the base with a light pole behind it holding up the shade. He has a sticker on his head that says "My name is Tiki" Anyone else got any any info on it, other than the GoTiki repros?

@ BayParkBuzzy: Last two weeks of stuff? TWO WEEKS ?!?! It would take me about seven or eight years to acquire that quantity [and quality] of Tiki items in Central Louisiana. I keep thinking I should just fly out to SF or somewhere in California for a weekend. Just hook up with a TCer who would be willing to take me around with them for an afternoon. It would probably be amusing, and maybe embarrassing. I've got a lot of pent-up desire - for Tiki, I mean.

I'm right on the edge of the Pacific, so this stuff just washes up on the beaches here all the time! I'm sure if I was a Civil War enthusiast, I'd be jealous of what you guys have out there because we don't have much Civil War stuff here. Lot's of tiki, though. And Mexican marble chess pieces that look like tikis. If you could only come out for a weekend, then come on out for Tiki Oasis. More tiki stuff there than you'll ever want or need.If I told you about all the cool old stuff I've personally sold there over the years, I think we'd both cry...

Buzzy Out!
