Edit: I realize there's some disagreement as to what makes a tiki mug. For this instance, I'm talking about any shaped ceramic mugs from the Polynesian-themed restaurants.
Well then your request should be for information about the early POLYNESIAN POP mugs - and you have the main info regarding that in the form of the Trader Vic's line of 1940s non-Tiki mugs. Asking for info on the earliest TIKI mug means asking for when the first cocktail vessel in the shape of a Tiki appeared and who made it (see the Spurlin info in the other link DC provided)
That Bali Hai menu offered by Mimi is not from the San Diego Bali Hai.
Thanks, I clarified the original post. Also, please note that I'm not trying to establish what the first mugs were, just trying to get dates for some of the more common mugs.
