There was an idea floating around a while back that the early issues would be compiled. Is that on ice or did it hit an iceberg? Taboo- The Art of Tiki 2? I heard this was on it's way over a year ago, but nothing has cropped up. The number of Tiki inspired artists has exploded and the first book was already a sell-out. Time for another, surely?

But with V3 in the picture, I wouldn't count on one anytime soon. -martin

M mrsmiley Tiki Socialite Las Vegas, NV Joined: Apr 03, 2002 Posts: 3197	M mrsmiley Posted posted on Tue, Sep 24, 2002 5:53 PM Manic Cat, and others...Do not be scared by sending in money to Tiki News for a subscription. The magazine does come out erratically, but you will get all the issues you are due. Tiki News is well worth it! I even recommend buying all the back issues Otto still has "in stock" to sell. This is one information packed magazine!!!! I always renew my subscription so I don't miss a single issue. PS-No, I don't work for Tiki News, I just love it! 8/16/2010 UPDATE- According to the Tiki New website, all back issues are SOLD OUT! [ Edited by: mrsmiley 2010-08-16 23:43 ]

As stated above, I'm sure we'll get our issues, but here is someone with a real love for tiki who is doing something to keep it alive. (Everyday I run out to the mail box, with anticipation dripping, hoping to find my issue of Tiki News; I haven't ran to the mail box like this since '68 when I saved up 30 boxtops from Honeycomb cereal in order to get my Green Hornet ring! Mister Postman, whoa, whoa Mister Postman ...)

Was that the last one or have I been missing out on other issues that are not listed on the Tiki News Web site? I do't want to be missing any of those issues! I love that little magazine.

Not that there is always room for another Tiki Art only book... :)
