The true Whale Egg Story or the Tale of the Whale Egg
January 22nd, 2009
Blackie Gadarian acquired this rare specimen of a whale egg in Hawaii in 1990. He mounted the Whale Egg on a custom made cradle and displayed the Whale Egg at Blackie’s Bar in Lahaina, Maui. An explanatory plaque accompanied the display to attest to the Whale Egg’s authenticity. Many people viewed the exhibit and made comments on it.
When Blackie’s Bar closed in 1995, the Whale egg was acquired by a private museum and moved to Southern California, where it remains on display for limited viewing.
