I am really interested to know why some of these mugs (orchid's) include 'r-1' on the bottom while others simple have 'orchid's of hawaii, japan'? also, why is it that some orchid's tiki mugs say Taiwan?...(i understand it obviously means they were made there but when did that start happening?...) I guess I'm trying to figure out how to date them...I realize that similar mugs can be purchased new but I'm interested in the date they may have become available, colors, etc.
