Like I said I am in the middle of restoring many photos of those clubs. Here is pops in the gardens of the South Pacific one of the last of the great knife dancers. His knives were sharp as razors and before each show he used to cut through wood and paper to show everyone they were real knives. Today they are just glorified baton twirlers with no risk of cutting off their hands or head.
Here is my mother who also worked in the gift shop in the South Pacific. My dad also carved the tikis that were in front the South Pacific and later on when it closed the Mai Kai took the tikis and put them in front of their place.
Thanks for posting these - beautiful pics! Count me as another vote who'd love to see more!
