THESE TWO SEEN HERE ARE NOT REPRODUCTIONS. THEY ARE THE REAL DEAL. Lighter needs flint and fluid, unmarked made of something lightweight, lighter is marked Japan. Cigarette holder lined with cork holds smokes upright for the taking. The cigarette holder is made of metal very heavy, marked on bottom Trader Vic's. The cigarette holder looks like he had tape across his nose cant get it off. I AM TRYING TO FIND THE APPROX. VALUE OF THESE ITEMS, ANY ONE KNOW?

Suffering Bastard Reproduction Black

aka Trader Vic's Squatting Tiki in 34 collections

This mug is commonly called the Suffering Bastard, and it is a reproduction of the original mug that was produced for Trader Vic's. You can tell the difference between a vintage and a reproduction by checking the marking on the bottom, and also checking the interior glaze -- a vintage Suffering Bastard's glaze is white, while this one is black.
