Some of you may not know that the two Trader Vic's in Honolulu were not owned by Trader Vic. Consequently, the created their own mugs made in Hawaii. Here is the illustrated menu with many of the mugs shown that I clipped from ebay some time back. Many of the mugs from this menu have been posted on TC but there are still a few that I have not seen documented. On the bottom right, there is the Scorpion bowl and the Navy Grog mug with the anchor logo. Have we seen these before? DC It ain't pretty, but it's the real thing. Behold Navy Grog: The shape is not the same as on the menu, but I have no reason to believe it to be fake. I found it in a town just outside of Houston. Sabu, I think you are right - we've not seen this before 'cause it's just too ugly to catch the eye! But now I think it's BEAUtiful! :lol:
