While some props were brought in just for the photo shoot, all of the backgrounds (including carvings, masks, bamboo, tapa, etc.) are different areas of the bar and dining room. These are not all of the pictures, but the ones that show a good bit of the decor.

Jeez, these crazy collectors, tiz tiz. Kenike, does it have THIS cover? I actually want to get one, to use as proof that Tiki can be modern AND tasteful nowadays, and NOT only done in that self-conscious, tacky "50s pin-up" re-enactment style.

I just called them because did not see it on the website, and this is a quarterly, thick coffee table catalog that can only be gotten thru a $ 50.00 subscription! I don't know if I'll ever venture near the faraway shores of Beverly Hills where their nearest store is to try to get just that one, my range of activity lies between Eagle Rock to the North, Burbank to the West and the Tiki Ti South of me...sort of a Polynesian (pop) Triangle, with my Tiki Island in the middle. At this point I say thank you for the nice scans, they shall suffice. :)
