Victor Coffee Mug White w/Green hand Painted Stripes Vintage Diner Restaurant

Description: I am sold out of the solid white mugs but have several with green stripes 6 ounce Victors that are factory “B” grade. Since they are all hand painted, handles are put on by hand, and admittedly, each is unique. It is not unreasonable to blebs, blemishes, inconsistencies in the glaze. Victors are never perfect, but these may have a fleck of dust in the glaze or very minor paint imperfections. Always cosmetic and never functional. If you want mugs with character, there are the mugs for you. There are the VERY last of the NOS Victors from the early 80s. After all, THESEARE THE LAST NEW REMAINING VICTOR MUGS IN THE UNIVERSE.

A SHORT HISTORY OF VICTOR, VICTOR INSULATOR AND THE VICTOR MUG VICTOR ,NEW YORKThe Village of Victor is located in Western New York State, seventeen miles east of Rochester. The Village of Victor was incorporated in 1879. At the hub of three railroads it quickly became an industrial center of the region and is the birth place of the wet process, high voltage porcelain insulator. VICTORINSULATORS Look around you at every power pole in your area and think Victor Insulators. Virtually all porcelain insulator companies owe their origins to the inventor, Fred Locke. He built the Locke Insulator business in Victor in 1898 and today it is known around the world as Victor Insulators, Inc. Porcelain insulators are made of high quality clays, combined with selected minerals, glazed with colored pigments, then fired in a 2,300 degree kiln. Standard and custom shapes of insulators are still being produced today VICTORMUGS In mid-century, Victor Insulators, Inc. added chinaware to their product line. Chinaware uses the same raw materials and production methods and was a natural fit. WWII meant huge orders from the services, especially the Navy and the Army. After the War, diners and restaurants asureda half-century of production. In 1990 production of this premier diner mug ceased due to foreign imports.
