Nice mule mug! Here is a rare find. Here is a tuxedo jacket for a captain of the wait staff from the original Flamingo Casino in Vegas. Dating from the late 40s to the early 50s. Found at a local thrift store. Missing a couple of buttons but the fact that the thing even survived all these years is amazing. Gotta love the hunt.

Unca T, That IS absolutely a fabulous find! Are you gonna wear it to a tiki event or display it in your lounge or both?
Now I’m embarrassed to post my recent thrift store find. It’s a vc hat that I’m gonna use as part of a tiki lamp. Not exactly sure how but it has some nice detail to it.
