1920's Hawaiian Piece Hula Girls Uke etc

Collectibles : Ethnographic : Hawaiiana : Hula

 

FABULOUS old heavy textured piece that has a nice black felt backing, and tasteful gold trim. I'm not sure what to call it. It looks and feels like pressed sand. I have a similar piece that I had framed years ago, and it looks great. It measures 14 by 11 inches and has a lot going on! In the foreground are 2 dancing hula girls, one ukulele player, another guy playing a different Hawaiian instrument (both wearing one piece bathing suits) palm trees and beach. In the background is the ocean with a girl driving a boat pulling another girl on an old hydroboard. The background is beige, the outline is in black, and the accent tints are coral and yellow. Near mint condition. There is a shadow in the photo across the bottom corner, but there is no discoloration or fading at all. Signed in one corner "BT" and in the other "J" and the copyright sign.
