Fiji Suva Malaita Club.

[Eric Zentner]

Found this Malaita style club today that came in with some Navy items that have been sold before I got there.
Suva had one of the finest natural harbors in the South Pacific 3 miles wide and cutting 2 miles inland.
These were sold by the local people as souvenirs.
The last one, I have shown here a few years ago.

Thanks Chris.
It is nice to have some history from the Solomon Islands.
These clubs are collectible in its own right.

Neat item! My Grandfather spent time on Fiji during the war. It is neat to see something from that area of the world. Thanks for sharing.
