Nice dig, bongofury. There is an album out of Arthur Lyman playing at the "Lattitude 20" (with the other side recorded at the Bali Hai in San Diego), and I have always looked for an ad or poster for that.
The Martin Denny ad is great, too bad that those ads were not done more elaborately back then, I doubt that they even made posters for these kind of restaurant gigs.

I think I have a photo from an article about a very modest Bali Hai on Washington Blvd, but it's at home in my archive.

And Bob Brooks must have retired from the Seven Seas by '67, probably had been in the biz for 30 years by then...

...and I had seen that Tai Ping ad before and always wondered about their logo, never seen it again anywhere, very cool...
