Barb,
I don't have the checklists, but until you hear from the others, Cooley's
1971 catalog said:
Island Holiday (Gibson, '70) ML. 36"
A bright and rich plicata pattern in golden buff. Standards are
solid metallic orange-gold; the falls are broad and semi-flaring, with an
all-over delicate etching of cream and cinnamon. This is the first of this
type to come from Jim Gibson. Large and extremely colorful.
Hope that helps!
