Hamo I sold another one of the World's Fair posters with the tiki subject to Mahalo Tiki. His was dark and old looking. Would you like me to see if he's up for selling it to you?

==================================

Yesterday and today I did another job of selling collectables. This time it was my collection of shot glasses that I sold. Here's the story.

For many years I've thought that the best souvenir to bring home from a vacation was a shot glass. I've never had a shot of alcohol in my life but I love these little works of art.

Recently I went through and picked out all of those from Hawaii, the south pacific and Australia.

I put them all into one bookcase. Then I counted. 240 total.

I then decided to let them go. I found a buyer for them all and I unloaded the shelves

and took them downstairs to prep them for shipping.

I had Dan tear strips of paper for me to use

between each glass.

Then I rolled them in bubble wrap and taped them into a tube. Once they were all done Dan stacked them and I taped them into a big block.

Then into a large box with peanuts all around them. Then off to the post office.

I still own about 400 from all over the USA and from our other vacations. I think most of them needed to go into this one big bookcase.

I just pulled the racks off the wall and carried them upstairs.

Now the bedroom downstairs have had the wall puttied to hide the holes and more than half the collection relocated. One day they will all be upstairs.

May all your projects go so well! Wendy
