family artifact from the Hawaiian Room, NYC

Aloha,
My mother recently gave this to me. It's one of those souvenir photo folders that one could get at restaurants and other places back in the day. My grandfather was a salesman for Lipton Tea, and this is a Lipton event at the Hawaiian Room at the Hotel Lexington in New York, NY sometime in the 1950s. BTW, my grandparents are standing in the back row. My grandmother has the light hair and black V neck. My grandfather is to the left of her.

That is AWESOME! Thanks for sharing.

An excellent moment in the beginning of the tiki era.
Thanks!

wow, you're grandparents were swank ~ thanks for sharing that picture with us...

Great photo Selector Lopaka!
I dig the guy up front in the pin-stripe suit, he looks like he's gonna "whack" someone.
Aloha,
:tiki:
