I started off this morning and hit the rainy roads of over to Larryville.
This one was waiting for me at Goodwill:

It's a Treasure Craft mug from Hawaii. I couldn't find out too much about it but was able to find more on Treasure Craft here: My Antique Mall . One of the antique & flea's next door had an extremely overpriced no-name mug and statue but I didn't bite on those.
Next I found an Orchids of Hawaii Leilani mug in Snellville (where everybody is somebody):

Evidently these are very common but it's my first. You could send off a few bucks to the Leilani Rum folks and get a nice box of four. I think they went out of business before I reached drinking age so I'll just have to find some more to make my own set.

There are many version of this one: Some are stamped R-91, some have only one face (this one has the bace on front and back), some say Tiki Leilani on the base, some say nothing on the base etc...
BTW:
If anyone comes across a Leilani display like this one please let me know.
