Went to the flea market today and found a few things.

"Tabu" by Ralph Font and his orchestra (no font jokes please), a Matson Cruise Lines New Zealand menu (I accidentally hid the tiki in the pic), a Jim Beam Kamehameha decanter (has Diamondhead on one side and King K on the other) in fantastic condition, a wooden tiki from Moorea and a Coco Joe's #262 Hula Dancer. The whole lot was under $30.

Now that I have your attention:

Not a find so much, unless you count finding something you forgot about in your cabinet. I was cleaning out my kitchen cabinets a couple of weeks ago and came upon this mug that I forgot I had. I bought her quite a while ago and don't really remember where I got her (ebay?). I got to looking at her and she's pretty interesting to me now that I know a little more about tiki/Polypop mugs. She's an exotic gal, polynesian or SE Asian perhaps, likely topless, leaning against a big barrel. On the bottom it appears to say UC121, Horvath, 1949. Anyone recognize her or know anything about her?

Added some contrast so more detail can be seen:
