Alameda Antique Fair...I bought this stuff from 2 of my favorite vendors there and 1 random lady ...spent I think $25 or there abouts. Its good to have vendors on your side! Kahiki, PMP,Labeless Moai, Daga Bucket and a Suck Em Up w/ Mai Tai recipe on the back (didn't have it) Didn't really buy too much tiki. A lot of vendors were waaaaaaaaaaaay overpriced and not willing to negotiate. But wait to see how Duane cleaned up--he did much, much better than I (as always!)

I am glad someone here on TC got them! I hope to run into you guys at the Antique Fair sometime. :) I will drop you a line next time I am going. Did you see my McPhee velvet painting I picked up today? My girlfriend also found two Turner prints, one with flamingos and one with storks. For my other finds, I picked up a Skipper Kents Moai, a thin lips Islander from Stockton and a hobbiest mug that looks like it could be somewhere between a totem and a tiki. :)

I barely paid anything for them which was a bonus :) I hope to run into you guys at the Antique Fair sometime. :) I will drop you a line next time I am going. Maybe we should start a thread and post there. It would be nice to meet more TC members out and about...so I knew what you looked like AND of course so I can scope out the competition! :wink: Did you see my McPhee velvet painting I picked up today? My girlfriend also found two Turner prints, one with flamingos and one with storks. I tried to buy a Turner flamingo print today...the vendor was asking more than I would pay and wouldn't negotiate. Oh well. Then I literally had a flamingo statue in my hand..was turning it over to look at the price when some guy grabbed it out of my hand and said "I just bought that. Thanks" lol At the time it was still sitting on the shelf..hey I guess it wasn't meant to be! For my other finds, I picked up a Skipper Kents Moai, a thin lips Islander from Stockton and a hobbiest mug that looks like it could be somewhere between a totem and a tiki. :) I saw lots of Skipper Kents and Islander stuff, Trader Dick's, Harvey's and a few random mugs..one vendor had a lot but when he wanted $22 for a Harvey's bucket you can only guess how high the rest of his stuff was priced! I told him I will see all his stuff at the show next month...since it was already 2 and he obviously hadn't sold anything from the display. Sabu..I saw the Doctor Z thread with that bucket mug after I posted this one...such a random thing to find but at least those shriners held onto the mugs for awhile!

PTD Psycho Tiki D Tiki Socialite The river Styx, can you pay the toll? Joined: Oct 13, 2006 Posts: 1857	PTD Psycho Tiki D Posted posted on Sun, Aug 2, 2009 8:04 PM I was able to finally spend a leisurely weekend in the Bay...noting I did drag my little tikihammer and buddy Kevin along with me... Spent Saturday doing a little shopping in Martinez. After a dealer showed me his "rare" Trader Vic's Redwing Skull mug for $125.00 and his rare speckled Trader Vic's Fogcutter mug with the 1963 date stamp on the bottom for $85.00, I spied these Moai mugs from Tiki Farm made in 2001. Since I already had the others, I bought these. The price was way lower! Couldn't go to Alameda without a stop at FI! Had never heard of or been to Tiki Tom's, found it by accident and decided to have dinner there on Saturday night. Great food, don't know about the drinks because I was the DD. Ran into Uncle Fun and bought his Banana Boat and the Derek Yaniger Papa Ubangi Decanters, however these were filled with Uncle Fun's homemade rum! Drank about 1/3 of one at the hotel, whew, strong, strange and wrong, in the right way! Maybe that is why I missed the McPhee velvet today? Sun Hung Heung San Francisco bucket mug. Crazy Al mug 1996. Coco Joe's hapawood tiki lighter. Westwood tiki lamp. Have not bought one of these in awhile, but I liked the size and expression on this one, plus no one has painted it. Nine Islander earring and one Islander black peanut mugs from the same seller. Made me a deal I couldn't refuse! Like Liz and Cool Manchu, saw lots of overpriced items and very common ones. Still, all in all, it was a good day! Later, PTD

CM Cool Manchu Member PDX Joined: Aug 03, 2003 Posts: 564	CM Cool Manchu Posted posted on Sun, Aug 2, 2009 8:14 PM Yeah, I saw a ton of those earring mugs today. It was still a great day overall, nice weather, good amount of dealers and got to bump into a TC'er without even knowing it. :)

My best score of the summer was a 75th anniversary Mai Tai glass from Trader Vic's. Got it for 50 cents!
