Hello. Please read the following, and look at the item photos before placing a bid. Thanks!
Item: A John Wayne cast and crew mug, from The Alamo movie.Notes: Found at a nearby collector's estate. I'm not certain if the original owner was in the movie, or acquired the mug from a friend. The mug is marked on the sides, "The Alamo", "Good Luck John Wayne", and has the image of the Alamo. The bottom is marked, "Bob Williams 486 So. D St. Tustin, Calif.". There is evidence of... other markings on the bottom, but it is mostly illegible - it looks like "Walker China Made in USA". A brief summary about the history of this, and other "cast and crew" mugs - John Wayne was a great guy, and gave personalized mugs (drawn by Bob Williams at the time of this movie) to the cast and crew members of each of his movies; they are rare, and very collectible.Size: It measures 3-7/8 inches tall; about 3-1/4 inches round at the top; and about 2-1/4 inches round at the bottom.Condition: Has minor "as-made" defects (one under the John Wayne signature, and inside the handle); has minor scratches; the gold paint on the handle is mostly intact, but there are some small spots that wore away. No cracks or chips, and the glaze is still shiny. Overall, it still displays very nicely.
Email me if you have any questions. Thanks for looking, and good luck.
