Here is the postcard that I just purchased. It's marked 1967.

A couple of enlargements. The Oceanic Arts New Caledonia figure on the wall is what caught my eye. The lamps are pretty great too.

Name:The Hawaiian Restaurant & Lounge
Type:restaurant
Street:146 Boylston Street
City:Boston
State:MA
Zip:02116
country:USA
Phone:426-6825
Status:defunct

Description:
The Hawaiian - an island paradise situated across the Common in the heart of Boston - excells in Polynesian and Cantonese Cuisine. Leisurely atmosphere and relaxing informality, induced by a wide array of tempting island drinks served at the Waikiki Lounge, mark the Hawaiian as Boston's best Polynesian restaurant.

My internet search turned up a big, fat nothing, so I thought I'd just quote the back of their postcard.

Boy, I wish you guys would stop finding stuff from my back yard! :lol:
Could this be the mug?

It must be. The writing's the same & just for the record, it's long gone.

I'd say based on the font, that's definitely it.

Nice mug, by the way!

Postcard says the Hawaiian and the Waikiki Lounge. Maybe that's yet another place?

I took it to mean that the Waikiki Lounge was the name of the bar in the Hawaiian Restaurant.

Fabulous mug, BK.
