SALE Unopened Package Vintage Santa Head Cocktail Picks

$19 USD SaleSALE Unopened Package Vintage Santa Head Cocktail Picks

Vintage Collectibles:Holiday, Seasonal
This is an unopened package of "12 Santa Picks". They are just adorable! The Santas have waffled, crepe paper heads and hats, and paper faces.

In all of my years of collecting vintage Hawaiiana, I've never seen a Thelma Taylor doll that was taller than 7 inches. I've asked friends who are also avid collectors, and no one else has, either.

Rare Surfer Figure Made in Hawaii

$175 USDRare Surfer Figure Made in Hawaii

Vintage Collectibles:Vintage:Hawaii:Hula
In all of my years of collecting vintage Hawaiiana, I've never seen this piece. The marks indicate that it is style #85, and was hand made in Hawaii in 1981 by Alii Gold. I'm not sure if it's made from a composition material that includes lava, like Co-Co Joe's pieces, or if it's made from black coral, like the Frank Schirman pieces. It's very heavy, and very detailed, more the quality of the Schirman pieces. Whomever crafted this, must have been a surfer, themself. They have beautifully ...
