These mugs are definitely a singular and recognizable style. I think you should have no problems claiming each one as a "Kelvin's", even when missing the label.

I would probably list the one with the recognizable label first. Then, next week, list another and say something like: "Verified manufacture by Kelvin's - This mug was purchased in the same lot as this previously-sold mug with label:" Then provide a link to the first auction.

The mug with the readable label will probably sell for a bit more than the others, but on a mug this sought-after, you will still make more money selling them individually.

Just my opinion. Any other advice from experience E-bay sellers?
