Tiki Oasis 2024 - Way Out West Mug - by Eekum Bookum
aka Tiki Oasis 24 Mug, Tiki Oasis XXIV Mug in 3 collections
This is a mug shaped like a tiki standing with a surfboard in one hand and wearing a prospector's hat with a sun on the brim.
Commemorating the July 31st - August 4th, 2024 Tiki Oasis, held at the Town & Country Resort in San Diego, California.
Created by John Mulder of Eekum Bookum.
The only way to guarantee a mug was to purchase a PLATINUM or DELUXE pass.
The Theme of this year, as explained by Tiki Oasis, itself:
"California has always cast a magnetic spell upon travelers drawn to America’s sunny vacation playground, where the sun meets the sea. There are plenty of westerly attractions to capture the imagination of visitors, from gold mines to beach sunsets to drive-through trees to Hollywood star sightings, but during the 1930s - 1960s, a new kind of California Gold Rush occurred: visitors steered west in search of liquid gold — Zombies and Mai Tais! After World War II, the Tiki craze took America by storm, and California was the epicenter. With the opening of Don the Beachcomber in the south and Trader Vic’s in the north, California was steeped in South Pacific romanticism and ripe for a Tiki tidal wave to hit popular culture. Concurrently, as mainstream attractions such as Disneyland steadily drew tourists, West Coast subculture began to explode with the sudden popularity of pop phenomena such as hot rods, theme parks, roadside vernacular, Googie and novelty architecture, the Beat Generation, and the rise of surf culture, as well as music movements such as West Coast Jazz, Exotica, Western Swing, and the Bakersfield sound. Eureka! You have found it — Welcome to California."

Trader Vic's London Maori Tiki Table Lamp

This table lamp was manufactured for Trader Vic's. It features their signature Maori tiki. There are two of them facing opposite directions with a glass shade in the center.
Depending on age, there are slight differences in the wood carvings of these lamps, which measure nearly a foot tall minus shade. What seems to differentiate the London Maori Lamps from Maori Lamps at other locations is that they use a taller white glass chimney shade.
