Hello everyone,
I have an eBay find that I am somewhat mystified about. It is a mask, made from palm wood, as far as I can tell. Lettering on the back says New Guinea, House Mask, and Hawaii.62. The gent who sold it to me said that it had come from the estate of a Disneyland employee and that it had been in Adventureland someplace. I did not put much stock in his account as it was vague and he was trying to sell something. The price was right, though, and I liked it, so it is on my wall. It is old, but beyond that, I have seen nothing else like it on the web. Any ideas or leads would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!
