Grams said she has a couple more, but they are chipped and cracked and crap. Its so weird, mauna loa gave these cups away with the baha lana drink when you buy it. well the company went under in the 60's and auctioned off a good portion of their stuff..

well come to find out, this restaraunt my grandma in law got these cups from was a local bar in flint michigan, which must have bought a bunch of these cups, becuase they were doing the same thing..giving them away when you bought a certain drink. and this was in the 80's.

amazing that these cups made it from the early 60's to a crappy little bar in flint michigan to my granmas cupboard without a scratch on em complete withe the manufacturer label on the bottom.

pretty damn cool if you ask me.

ill let you guys know when she drops off the remeaning 2 and their condition.

Scram!
