OK you can open your eyes now. Instead of being from the 70's-80's devolution of tiki couldn't the scarf have come from the zenith of western entertainment in the mid 50's to mid 60's? or have been from the Denver or Arizona Vic's? Just speculating but I can't see why you would bring in elements from another popular culture (western) that was rapidly fading in the 70's? aloha, tikicoma
