The Stuff Mug - First Edition - by Art Guy Designs

This is the first tiki mug made for 4 Kahunas Tiki Lounge. The story of its making was published in Exotica Moderne Issue 6, 2020, pages 38-39.
The mug features each of the 4 Kahuna carvings (based on the owners - Chris Powell, Randy Shepherd, Scotty Smith, and J.P. Hunter) around a wood-grained cylindrical mug.
The logo tikis were originally drawn by artist Bill Child, then carved by an un-named carver in Galveston, before being re-interpreted by John Mulder for his mug design.
Some of the later mugs in the run look to have been a bit darker brown than the initial mugs.
