Come to think of it- Here is that other postcard I am talking about above:

Everybody has seen it, it must have been a Quantity Postcard bestseller. I finally got to put it in its historical context on page 257 of TIKI MODERN. What I have yet to see though is an example of the Stanley The Great cocktail glasses:

Note the typical "Big Head" caricature of the master on the left (with balancing glass tray). Apparently it was put on glasses, with his moniker in red underneath. Does anyone here have one and can they please post a picture of it? Does anyone have extras and can they please send me one :) ? (...or did they all break? :D )

(Other noteworthy details in that photo are the Tiki Ti-like cards plastered on the wall and ceiling, and on the back wall, where we also can make out his name, "STAN".)

Oh, and here's an added bonus scan: The BACK of the "GO GO 'til 5 a.m./Wreck Bar" postcard on page 258 of Tiki Mod.

Pretty funny...
