Here are two mug illustrations shown in the drink menu from the Tahitian in Pasadena, you know, the cool yellow one.

The first is a Fog Cutter style mug (cleverly named the Smog Cutter!) that shows the Tahitian name and their logo hut.

Do they exist?

I found the Smog Cutter mug on the way home from Oasis today at the only Thrift Store I stopped at. I was in the middle-of-nowhere California!

It does not say Tahitian on the side, but it is marked Tahitian on the bottom!

I also found what I believe is a older TrADER Vics fogcutter mug -that is older than the 1963 versions I have.

Bottom says "made for Trader Vics".

According to the Price Tag, the Tahitian Mugs were on the shelf for about a year. UPDATE- what a typo! The mugs were there for about a MONTH! Not a year.... I was tired when I made that error.
