By request--it's the Kowloon Volcano mug ca. 1968.

That's a very nice mug pappy, I've never seen that one before. Anything with an erupting volcano is A++ as far as I'm concerned.

I forgot to mention a couple of things, it's an OMC mug (it's got the yellow OMC stick on the bottom). The volcano seems to be modeled after the volcano mural inside the Kowloon itself. Seen here:

The sugar packet inside the box disappeared. I'm an idiot--I lost it. It did have a 1968 date on it so that's almost certainly when the mug is from. The sugar packet featured the nauseous-looking tiki featured on another Kowloon mug.

Here's the 1968 sugar packet the came with the mug. If anybody but Sabu had asked, I probably wouldn't have posted these images. Warning: fotos grandes!
