The so called "Warrior" mug from Steven Crane's Luau Restaurant. Steve was a failed B movie star, he was in "Cry of the Werewolf" (1944). He was a legendary Ladies man who married Lana Turner twice. The bartenders in old Hollywood tell this story of how one night he showed up with Ava Gardner, the next night with Rita Heyworth and then Lana Turner the third night. Hollywood Trifecta!!! He later opened the Kon Tiki and Port O' Call chains.

The mug will certainly sell on Ebay for over $100.00, possibly over $150.00, maybe over $200.00

Whoa.... I dont think my grandmother needs to know that. Thank you very much. I was thinking it was called like hunter or something like that.
