I have a glass candle holder of this, same size but no markings on it. i assume the mug was made from a mold of the glass candle holder. where the words weathermatic on yours are, is a blank space on mine. I'm sure others have or have seen the candle holder. Did you get this on etsy ?? I saw one there recently and i notice it was sold.

Yes.. I got it on Etsy. I'd never seen it before and looked interesting enough. But it's nothing too special either. I did seem a little strange that what looks like a corporate give away was that unique. So yes, it being made from some sort of hobbyist type mold would make sense. Also, it has the flat bottom (as opposed to concave or recessed) which seems to be a common aspect of hobbyist mugs.
