    I am proud that I was able to contribute images for the “Sexy Tiki” portion of Sven’s newest book, “Tiki Modern“. I just got a bit of new naughty hula stuff to share.

    From the January 1963 we have a surprisingly long pictorial of a Hawaiian festival. We see the fantasy unfold. The images are NSFW: not safe for work.

    We see the natives get restless, then our blonde “private secretary” cuts loose!

    Note the tan line on her that is 6 inches above her belly button.

    The Tiki Kai in Albuquerque from Modern Man magazine July 1966. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to get the customers into your joint.

    Uh, yeah, where is his attention… Not on that great tiki lamp!

    The middle image is the gals “keeping the owner happy.”

    Hey, is that a Barney West tiki? It’s definitely an OMC Surfer Girl mug!

    UPDATE: I loaned these magazines to Sven Kirsten, author of the Book of Tiki a while back and he has informed me that images from the magazines (another one I have not blogged) will account for two pages in his new book coming out early next year. So, consider this a tantilizing sneak preview! When can I pre-order this new book?
