Description
~~ NOT A COMMON MUG ~~
This is a Dugan Fisherman’s Mug in Amethyst or Purple Carnival Glass. This one is different. It is scribed on the blank side, “Compliments of Kaufman’s Underselling Store Harrisburg Pa.”.
In my research on the store, I found an ad for a Grand Re-Opening in 1915. Since the Fisherman’s Mug first shows in catalogs in July 1914, this was possibly used FOR GRAND RE-OPENING IN 1915…lots of our Carnival Glass Advertising items were made for Grand Openings and/or Re-Openings.
Circa 1914.
~NO CHIPS OR CRACKS~
Approximate dimensions:
4 inches high.
