tikiskip I just got off the phone with Joniece Frank. She said the sticker was for Frankoma's 40th anniversary of being in business. The year was 1973. I asked her is they went on every piece of pottery made that year and she said no that it was hit and miss. They made some stickers and if anyone thought about it they would grab one and stick it on. It's possible that your War God is the only one that got the sticker because so few War Gods were made.
Again Congratulations, Wendy

That is wild stuff, Thanks Wendy for the info.
You think all there is to know about tiki has been said and then new stuff pops up, to me that's the fun part.
I don't know if you have done this yet but have you documented all info you can get from Joniece
about their tiki mugs for tiki history sake?(like how many of each different styles did they make?)
Why the name Frankoma?
We are all getting older and stuff like that gets forgotten.
Maybe you Wendy need to start the Frankoma thread here on TC.

Just added...
The name Frankoma was created from Frank's last name and the last three letters of the state of Oklahoma.[4]

"Not only a War God, but a Cultured Pearl model to boot."
So not all of these were Cultured Pearls?
Thanks all!
