Is this a real Trader Vic's Fogcutter mug? A hobbyist mug? A bootleg? - Collecting Tiki

Yeah, I checked Ooga-Mooga, and it just made things murkier (especially since one of those is called a "hobbyist mug"! Mine most closely resembles the modern unspeckled version, but those appear to be labeled "1993" on the bottom and the markings on mine appear to make it older than that. I guess it's just one of those things that I'll never 100% know the answer to. Anyway, I'm glad I went back and bought this one! It's not the pride of my collection or anything, but for two bucks you can't go wrong.
