Gwynne Austin had previously managed Hawaii's Kona Inn, the Halekulani and opened Kaisers Hawaiian Village... he left Hawaii to take over the Windsor in 1954. I have seen 3 of those mugs in person but they were all marked Kalua Room... there were a couple Tiki Tiki mugs for sale online a few years back that were unmarked though. I've never seen that menu before... Great post! [ Edited by tikicoma on 2022-03-19 17:43:05 ] [ Edited by tikicoma on 2022-03-19 17:44:25 ]
