{"product_id":"pub-tiki-1-usa-1950s","title":"Pub Tiki 1, USA 1950s","description":"\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTiki culture began at the end of Prohibition in 1933 with the opening of Don’s Beachcomber, a Polynesian-themed bar and restaurant in Hollywood, California. The restaurant's name was later changed to Don The Beachcomber and proprietor Ernest Raymond Beaumont-Gantt, who had been a bootlegger in New Orleans and Texas, legally changed his name to Donn Beach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePeople flocked to Don the Beachcomber which was decorated with flaming torches, rattan furniture and brightly colored fabrics and which served exotic rum drinks – the most famous of which was called The Zombie. It was so strong, some customers were limited to two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSoon, other bar owners were opening exotically-decorated bars and restaurants and serving extravagantly named alcoholic drinks. In 1936, Trader Vic’s opened in Oakland, California.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTiki culture was further influenced by World War II and the first-hand exposure of thousands of American servicemen serving in the Pacific. Then came films like South Pacific.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIn time, its appeal lessened but interest in potent cocktails served in fake tropical paradises has never quite gone away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis striking menu has all the Tiki signs and symbols that fans love – flowers, masks and armaments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWe haven’t been able to find the location of this Tiki pub but believe it is from the early 1950s.
