2010 Squid Super Sale on eBay

Celebrating his 10th anniversary in the Tiki movement, artist Squid has decided to release many mugs from his personal stash back into the wild. These are all factory samples or artist proofs with test glazes of mugs that he designed or sculpted. Lots of very rare and early Tiki Farm mugs! As proof that they come from his own collection, each mug is signed by Squid and comes with a certificate of authenticity as well. Squid has authorized Taboo Island to conduct the sale on eBay now.

Here's a quick example of some of the tiki goodness - an unnumbered artist proof of the Shag Enchanted Tiki Room 40th Anniversary mug, the limited edition Tiki Magazine moai, and a super early and rare Headhunter mug from 2000!

New Tiki Oasis Sideshow Banners by Thor

Some of you may have already picked these up from us at Oasis, but for those of you who couldn't make it, the Tiki Oasis banners featuring Marina the Mermaid, King Kukulele, Tana the Tattooed Lady and Crazy Al are up on Taboo Island now.

In full character with the 2010 Tiki Oasis Tenth Anniversary theme, "Extravaganza", Artist Tom Thordarson, better known as Thor, has created a series of epic stage banners through hand painted imagery and digital typography to celebrate four of Oasis' featured performers. These banners, capturing the character of both the performer featured and the hint of old style side show art served as both the stage backdrops in large scale and these mini poster prints to commemorate this special event.
