I am reasonably certain Hawaii was technological advanced enough in 1960 to have a valid system of recording births. You don’t lose those things.

The BC might have been put on microfiche since then (a common practice in the 60s-90s to save space), but I can’t believe it was actually lost.
What were the data records that produced the short form BC based on? At some point someone had to physicaly enter the data into a database—a time consuming and expensive effort.
There has been recent posts by a kenyan that was born a month before Obama. it was in the same hospital claimed. The Registrar was the same as the claimed obama BC(from kenya). I don’t have a link but maybe someone here has it. In any event, Kenya had Certified records going back to 1961. Hawaii should be much further along at that point. kenya, not so much.
