What Is This Mug?

[s1mp13m4n]

I was going through my dad's cabinet again and found this shaving mug. Any idea what it is, how old it is, etc. Thank you for any info you might have on it. Sorry about the pics...they were done with my cellphone.

Looks like a

LATE GLASS MUG 04
mid 1970s-1992

Hope that helps

It is difficult to date Late Glass 03 and 04 precisely. They both have the Ship Recovery on one side, and all the Shulton sales material I have reviewed only shows the "Ship Recovery" view. Therefore it is impossible to know what ship is on the hidden side.

This glass mug was introduced around mid 1970 and I believe it to be the last mug produced. It has two ship images on opposite sides of the mug. One is the Ship Grand Turk - Salem 1786 and the other is Ship Recovery - Salem 1794. The bottom is marked with "Old Spice Shulton." Bottom is marked Old Spice and Shulton with a number that is the mold mark used by Wheaton Glass in the mug manufacturing.

There is more information here.


Edit: You beat me to it.

That's the same one I have . . . every shave shelf needs an Old Spice mug.

It's tradition.
