Well I'm glad I could help on this one. With the mug itself it looks really familiar. It may be in the home made section of Tiki Quest. I'd check myself but I just moved and all of my books and tiki mugs are still hiding in boxes. Can anyone verify this? I want to say it's an ugly white and red glaze in the book but I'd have to see it.

It could be that ceramics shop was playing around with the mold to make something a little more specialized for a good client. Shaving mugs were more popular in the 60s so this fits. For sure it's a really interesting piece.
