It's definitely that Strickow bottle (p.186 BOT). I have seen it before where someone cut of the top to make a mug out of it. Judging by the smooth surface of this one they either put on a new paint job OR took a mold from the bottle and cast a completely new mug.

The modernistic design of this bottle was always one of my faves, it was also liked enough back then to be copied, there are still concrete lawn Tikis in two different sizes out there that used a very similar design, and I've seen it as a lamp base.
