Item Description
6" tall from same c. 1940s series as #s1314-1315, 1274, 1276. Painted and glazed ceramic mug depicts legendary crooner's head as mug with pipe forming handle. His face is caricature with emphasis on his droopy eyes and large ears. We have offered a variety of this mug in the past which had a gold luster stripe at center of pipe and orange shirt collar instead of yellow. .25" chip to underside rim, .25x.75" chip to upper lip but as mug was made of flesh-colored ceramic, this only really shows upon close inspection. 1/8" paint flake to hat brim which has color touch-up. Pipe stem has repair. Still glossy and displays nice.
