Soon as I lifted it from the shelf I knew that it was unlike the two that I had purchased at Don’s several years ago. The detail was not bad but the found mug did not have the heft of the ones that I have in my home bar. The “real” mugs have the seam from the mold completely removed and it is very apparent on the “knockoff” (picture three). Did I find a knockoff or is this typical of what Don’s is using? Anyone know who made the copyrighted one’s? I also picked up a new Cocktail lounge candle made by General Wax out of North Hollywood.I was surprised that General Wax is alive and well-check out their website. Should look good on the cocktail table in my Tiki Longe/bar. [ Edited by: nui 'umi 'umi 2015-11-09 20:57 ]
