Coco Palms Hotel (Wailua Kai Wing)
Island of Kauai, Hawaii
1950's or 1960's
Feast your eyes upon what surely must be a rather impractical bed, which the postcard called "Outrigger Bed". Look at that odd wood frame surrounding the bed. Do you take that apart before going to bed? If not, getting up in the middle of the night could make for an interesting adventure. And let us not mention the pair of spears just behind the headboard, a potentially nasty accident waiting to happen. And look at all these little throw pillows placed just so. Maids must have loved making this bed everyday.
By the way, according to the description on the back of the postcard, the bedspread is fishnet which explains the rather rustic appearance of the bedspread. Also, the upright paddles on the nightstands are actually lamps.
