I am happy to finally firmly and formally confirm ( :) ) my slide presentation at this year's Tiki Oasis in San Diego, on Saturday the 18th, 4:30 pm!

I will share some images from my most recent and farthest urban archeology expeditions, among them views of the Trader Vic's at the Havana Hilton:


which is now called The POLINESIO at the Habana Libre:

...plus I will throw in a few other mid-century Havana locations frozen in time, like the Nautical Club:

Also shown will be pictures of the lost treasures inside the long closed Chin Tiki in Detroit:

.....among them rare Witco artifacts such as this "Witchdoctor" lamp:

I am also very hopeful that I will have with me one or two ADVANCE COPIES of TIKI MODERN, to carefully hand around the audience so they can caress it's cloth cover! IF the copies make it, they will arrive a mere day or two before the show. Words can not describe my anticipation. :)
