Pep Boys mug


A Pep Boys coffee mug for people on the go. This plastic mug came with an adhesive backed cup holder that the mugs pedestal slid into. Sticking it on your shiny dashboard might of seemed like a good idea, but probably didn't do much for the car's value.

Florida Map mug

It's very possible that the person who sipped their morning coffee out of this souvenir mug also spent some time imagining plans for a return trip to Florida's pristine beaches.  With BP's huge oil slick threatening everything along the Gulf Coast many beach vacation plans have no doubt been put on hold.

Fortune Cookie Chinese Restaurant mug

This mug from The Fortune Cookie is no doubt lucky, but if you're a chinese restaurant do you really want to name your place after the mass-produced, tasteless, plastic wrapped snack that you give away after a meal?

GE mug

This GE mug, with a green rather than customary blue logo, was probably used to promote the company's "greener" corporate image. The elegant and timeless GE logo stands out among the many soulless and generic logos that are used today.
Thanks Nancy.
