Can I add Trader Vic's Toronto to that list? I have yet to see ANY documentation from there, and it was just down the street from me... I know TV s ahs lots of documentation, but I mean this one in general. Also, the Ports of Call in Toronto.

Hmmmm...were they unique from all the other TVs in their architecture? Like the freestanding A-frames in Vancouver and Scottsdale?
I won't say if you have seen one TV you've seen them all, but of the over 20 Trader Vic interior postcards I have only a few stand out.

Talking bout A-frames: Someone beat me to the A-frame book, a forrest service guy is coming out with one on Princeton Architectural Press. His angle are of course vacation homes of the 50s and 60s, but also restaurants, Motels and churches will be featured. And it looks (from the PAP catalogue) like he is using lots of vintage brochure illustrations.
