Have posted it in the Tiki Gallery: Oceanic Arts mug I contacted OA about it, will post any info the provide. Have seen the mug in the case at OA, along wih many other Holy Grail type mugs. On a related note, the elderly gentleman at Emeryville TV's that told us about the ealry TV's and Zombie Village? He also mention "Planter's Dock", a place no one seemed to recognize. I googled the name and cam up with one bit of info. It's now Temple Isaiah: "So in November 1952, when Planter's Dock, a Polynesian-style restaurant in Lafayette went into foreclosure, the men and women jumped at the chance to purchase the building and its 13-acre property for $53,000." Sacred ground, eh? midnite
