How cool is that? Your awesome Trade Winds mini-menu and brochure find ALSO provided us with provenance to a number of the carvings located around the TW restaurant property. Bongofury's "Mani" (who knew it had a name?), and the two carved beams I found, among them - all carved by Rick Ellis! The "...Irreverent facts" brochure you acquired seems to be a pretty unique item. Maybe you or BigBroTiki would know, but was it common back in the day, for restaurants to publish such information for guests about their interior and exterior decor? Thanks again for sharing your great find with us. I'll look forward to learning what other interesting information you find in the brochure. Mahalo! 20th Century Man
