Went out to the two goodwills near my home today....

Found this jar with a depiction of Francis Langford's Outrigger in Jensen Beach, Florida. At first I was very happy to find it, I'm guessing Francis didn't have many signature mugs or such, as I've never come across any in my hunting. Thought maybe the jar was maybe sold in a gift shop toward the end of her run...maybe filled with some kind of candy or something. Then I noticed the law firm below... Guessing that they produced it for whatever reason. Kinda bummed, almost didn't pick it up, but it was forty nine cents.

Cool find. Wonder why they made that? Anyway, The Outrigger had a bamboo mug that had "Frances Langford's Outrigger" printed on it. They definitely had a gift shop selling clothes, jewelery and whatnot. I sometimes see the clothes on ebay becasue they were labeled as being from Frances Langford's Outrigger.
