The porcelain mugs usually bore the patron's name and an image of their trade or fraternal lodge. Having your own mug was a matter of social pride.


This antique shaving mug is a true gem that will make a perfect addition to any collection. The mug features a personalized design with the name "H Willenbrink” and was found at an estate sale. The stamp on the bottom was likely the barber, C. Heatwig, St Louis.
