Small "AP" on bottom. Purchased some time around 2010 from Bamboo Ben. Other than the "AP" on bottom this looks just like the regular version.

Bahooka Sacrificial Chalice Artist Proof

aka Bahooka Sacrificial Chalice AP in 2 collections

This resin Tiki stemmed chalice with ceramic bowl was designed by Von Franco and Crazy Al for the Von Franco Art Show at the Bahooka Restaurant in Rosemead, CA in July, 2004. The stem was designed by Crazy Al and features a tiki with slanted eyes and an hourglass shaped mouth. The bowl was designed by Von Franco and features his Smokin' Joe tiki. It came packaged in a hut designed by Bamboo Ben. The artist proofs of this came in a handful of very different colors and ranged from a brown stemmed yellow bowl version similar to the regular issue, to a gold stemmed blue version, to a red stemmed version with purple bowl (featured on page 81 of Jay Strongman's Guide to Tiki Mugs), and a green stemmed version with yellow bowl. The fifth of the 5 proofs was not fully assembled (though easily could be) and the bowl may have been red or pink. The stems were marked "AP" or personalized by Crazy Al on the bottom.
