Hi as many of you are probably aware the Trader Vic's in London is due to close at th end of the year, We have started a petition online and have over 3500 signatures so far including some influenial people in media/journalism and even the 20th century presevation society, This is a request if anyone has more Vintage pictures for the 1960's era they can share with us' as if they can prove it has not had a major remodel and is mostly original there might be a case, Also the polesand fittings,Who carved these and where?, We have tried to get hold of Bob at Oceanic Arts to see if they did any of it and there does not seem that much detail on its early history/opening, If you look at pictures there is a lot of old stuff (tapa on most walls/Outrigger on ceiling/support posts, bar area etc,) Thanks4b5336d94b53354b4c7acadb4c8541d5
