Tahitian Tikis Imports

Found this cool old photo from 1970. Anyone have an idea where it was taken or any info on Tahitian Tikis Imports?
Looks as though it may have been a nautical themed strip mall of sorts with medical offices...or perhaps located at a tourist trap/port of call?

I've got the answer: it was in Tiburon, California, whose one-block-long downtown has been touristy for decades. Here's their ad from the June 1967 issue of "The Magazine of Northern California, Image, Marin Edition," a 96-page bound quarterly publication that seems to have been aimed at those with (shall we say) disposable income.

Nice work Clayfran,
I like that tiki representation on the ad.

Btw, looks like there’s a candy store at 21 Main. It also appears that the location fronts the Tiburon Ferry Terminal-hence the nautical flavor of Lukeulele’s pic.

Well, it only took 4 years for a reply! Here is a little more info on the place.

It opened in 1960 and was owned by Mimi Berticevich.

Tikis up to 6 feet tall!

Here's Mimi in the kitchen with a smaller Tiki.

Dusty, I knew you would contribute to this thread. You need to change your handle to DependableCajun.
Mahalo!
