This is the original Kahiki Restaurant “Quiet Tiki Village” sign that hung at the entrance to the Village Dining Room behind the front desk wall (as indicated on the label when it was taken down). http://www.ebay.com/itm/191160065864?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 |

Can you show a photo of the label that was on this when it was taken down. |

Here is the label. As you know, all other Kahiki artifacts sold when the outlet store closed were marked with these labels (identical penmanship and marker). The other signs did use tubing for the lettering (beachcomber shop, phone, outrigger bar, etc.). Not sure if Tropical Bistro had a sign made, but this one was labeled, verified, and purchased with other items during the outlet sale...not the Bistro. thanks |

Here is a thread that has another sign from the Kahiki that says Quiet Village. http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=4926&forum=2&start=45&60 |

The quiet village sign in that thread obviously matches the style of the other Kahiki ones. What I can tell you about the sign in my auction is it was piled up against all the other artifacts in the factory outlet through the double doors leading into the warehouse. It was labeled like all the other artifacts indicating where it was located, verified by management at the time, and sold with a receipt (which is what I try to include with all my Kahiki auctions). This was fall 2005. Hope this helps. |

Exactly, to the right of that photo would've been the shields, war clubs, masks, and paintings... Along with the pallet of Witco and other items given to the Zoo. Agreed... You were among the first few collectors given access. |
