Kau Kau Tin

Question on the original home lunch: Does anyone know where I could purchase the stackable 2 or 3 compartment plantation style tin lunchbox? I know it's a long shot, and I'm betting that only the old mom and pop stores might sell them. Since those types of stores no longer exist on Kauai or they have modernized into selling plastic, cartoon covered versions, I am not having any luck with finding them here.

I believe you can get them at Shirokya, Ala Moana or at the Daiei store, too.
