I also got a Martin Denny album I didn't have...Hawaii Tattoo (with the girl eating the grapes). Lastly, I picked up a Trader Vic's mai tai glass, but as I was washing it, the white tapa pattern began dissolving and all I was using was water and dishwashing soap with a sponge. Weird. I've never seen that happen before and I have a LOT of imprinted glassware. The glass was pretty much spoiled at the point, so I tossed it, but I still think I came out ahead today with only $8 spent and the other two items were in perfect shape.
