Hey, GROG just notice Wildsville man snuck up another artist proof/ test glaze mug on ebay. It has one day, five hours left.

Rory almost got the description right, (he should really get GROG to write these down for him before him post on ebay.)

It has 1C etched on the bottom. There was a 2C and a 3C also (which Trader Tom can vouch for because he help GROG glaze these) which indicated how many coats of yellow underglaze were applied. This mug only had one coat so the yellow came out lighter. The black used is a different black than the one used in the final production run, and it is lighter as well. The blue glaze used is a different blue and is lighter. It came out a more powder blue/baby blue. Overall the colors are a more pastel version than the final production mug.
