My husband's family lived that time in the Star Island. Anyhow, VanDercar did sculpt a lot of Tiki, some of it was onsale about a year ago on a private website, all sold by the time I got hold of the host of the site, and they didnt want to give me prices. A privacy issue, I was told politely. VanDercar was recarded as "wierd" at that time by many people, especially people associating with church as he himself was more of a non-church goer... But nevertheless a regodnized and respected artist, quite avangard at that time. Best wishes, Draig
