Frankoma Coconut T7 Club Trade Winds Tiki Mug Yellow Tang Rare

Description: Frankoma Coconut T7 Club Trade Winds Tiki Mug Yellow Tang Rare Frankoma Coconut T7 Club Trade Winds Tiki Mug Yellow Tang Rare. Measures 4 5/8" x 4 1/4". Excellent condition. Some information I found on this - The Trade Winds Motor Hotel and restaurant opened in 1960 at 51st Street and South Peoria in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The hotel was the first of the Trade Winds Hotel chain. Later, the hotel became known as Trade Winds West. When the hotel opened, the members-only club inside was called Club Trade Winds (CTW). The décor was based on the Polynesian tropical way of life in concept and design. CTW was originally to be the crème de la crème in Polynesian themed restaurants, to equal and hopefully surpass the popular Trader Vic’s (1934-current). Club Trade Winds followed Trader Vic’s concept of serving exotic drinks in unusual (example skull-shaped) containers that the customer could then purchase. Frankoma was commissioned in 1960 to create and make pieces in the Polynesian culture for CTW. Joniece Frank (with the help of father John Frank on two pieces) designed these beautiful items. The drinkware consisted of the T3 War God; T4 Widow-Maker; T7 Coconut and T2 Bamboo tumbler. The logic for the War God and Widow Maker being so large was so CTW could charge more money for a drink made with lots of ice, so the customer felt he was getting his money’s worth for the cost of the drink, while the container could also be purchased to take home.
