Always wanted an Old Spice mug

Always wanted an Old Spice mug. Passed up the opportunity decades ago and regretted the decision.

That looks so inviting!

I was recently gifted one from @Tanuki ... I'll have to rumage around my photo graphic alley and see if I took a picture worthy of it's awesomeness!

Notice please the custom lid and the contents... Maybe a better picture is in order for that:

I am so grateful for my friends.

I've got that one! A great coffee mug. I want that cinnamon roll.

The main man of Old Spice mugs thinks it is for coffee. For anyone interested, this is a solid Old Spice collectible site:

That IS a coffee mug, I have one too.

Higher and narrower than OP's shave mug.

Everybody should have both!

Beautiful photography. Nice mug!

I think @sarimento1 used to work as a photographer at National Geographic, but he won’t fess up.

Nice!!

The only one I've seen out in the wild had the little handle chipped off and they were asking 20 bucks. Nope.

 

[oldskool76]

love it, I will possibly work on collecting more I had 4, once upon a time know I have the one I use to shave with every day love the ships on them. Remind me of my grandfather who was a merchant marine in the 40's before joining the marines.

 

[Big Jim]

I have eight in rotation and another waiting in the wings. Love them.

Nice score, congratulations.

damn you guys! I've been resisting to starting a small "shelf-worthy" collection of mugs. At some point I'll get a personalized shaving mug that belonged to my great great uncle from his time in the Spanish American war... it would be terrible for it to be all alone. Where should I be looking?

 

[ajkel64]

The bay, second hand shops, antique shops. A Wanted To Buy in the BST. They are out there.

 

[luv2shave]

These are some amazing mugs ! Enjoy

Interestingly enough, I just got a 1948-49 "Friendship" Old Spice mug for $15 in a local antique shop. Looks brand new! I wish I had a lid for it.

Here are mine, I have since acquired a second rare English Wade Old Spice mug complete with recessed lid incorporating a brush rest, shown on the left. I am now seeking some earlier mugs but they are hard to find in the UK.

Richard..... I've been looking for a Wade mug with lid for the last six months. If you are willing to part with one of your Wade mugs I'd be glad to trade a Ship Grand Turk (the first Old Spice mug) for it.
