I never buy any vintage items that I wouldn\'t LOVE to have in my own home, and I\'m sad to part with these! ((but my hubby won\'t allow one more kitchen item!!)) Check out these 1970s vintage mugs in good vintage condition! These were made in Long Beach at Ketchum Originals-- the same shop that made the legendary cast & crew mugs for all John Wayne movies that now sell for hundreds, if not thousands. I can\'t find a single other example of these mugs anywhere, leading me to believe that these may be one of a kind!!! The frog design is so silly-- sticking out his tongue as you enjoy a morning brew! This mug is in great vintage condition with very little crazing. The turtle art makes me laugh every time... a cute turtle falling in love with an army helmet. Kinda sweet, if you ask me... The turtle mug is in good condition with crazing on the exterior of the mug. They both have a gold stripe detail along the handle-- likely real gold, just like used on the John Wayne mugs.
