What I like about that menu are the gals on it. They are just about the sweetest renderings of little brown nubiles I've seen! Lanikai, since you're an avid TV collector, I'd have to say I have a TV item that you'd be interested in. It's the original kava bowl owned by John Pagliero, owner of TEPCO, produced as a gift for his wife - Mary Jo Pagiero. It is the first and one of a kind. On the bottom John signed his and his wife's name and dated it 7/3/42. It's also the one that Mr Vic first saw and approved for production for his restaurants. Anotone was John's son that took possession of it after John's death. It was eventually sold at the Pagliero estate sale. True it's not a paper menu, but... On a side note, I enjoy your attempt at pidgin posting. But I think Gecko's got the more authentic market on that schtick! "I'm ashamed to be here, but not too ashamed to leave..." Celebrate 'International Tiki Day' the second Saturday in August - hau'oli la tiki! [ Edited by: Tiki_Bong on 2004-06-10 10:03 ] |
