This Honolulu souvenir pennant features the classic “hula girl,” a mass-produced icon that became ubiquitous in the post–World War II travel boom, when fascination with Polynesian culture shaped American tourist imagery. Popular throughout the late 1940s and 1950s, such motifs helped define the era’s romanticized vision of Hawaii and its emerging Aloha-themed souvenir industry.
