It wasn't available on region 1 dvd until late 2010 and guess what, a scene was shot in the Trade Winds! So until I can find the dvd here are some captures from the www. Also found this ad from an Images of America Seattle's Belltown book, "The Trade Winds was the down stairs bar/restaurant in the Sailors Union of the Pacific building. It was a beautiful, dark tiki joint with a back bar decorated with exotic coins from around the world collected from sailor patrons. It later became My Suzie's Oriental Pacific, one of the last Belltown bars to offer a workman's happy hour at 6:00 a.m. (Author's collection.)" I lost track track of the source, but I read of the popularity of it's happy hour due to the no limit Zombies! aloha, tikicoma [ Edited by: tikicoma 2013-10-14 00:05 ]
