Johnny Sens Square-Toothed Tiki Mug
in 5 collections
These tiki mugs were made by Johnny Sens, in the early 1960's, and are marked as such. Dates of 1961, 1963, and 1965 have been spotted on different mugs marked "Johnny Sens". Identical to wall masks and standing figures by Napco, however. Tiki has two rows of even teeth, and a zigzag hairline that could signify a drum head, but gives a frankenstein-like appearance.
