Vintage 1988 RINGLING BROS BARNUM & BAILEY TIGER Tail Handle Plastic Mug *Circus

Description

Welcome to our listing for
this souvenir 1988 "tiger" plastic mug from "Kenneth Field presents Ringling Bros and Barnum and Bailey Circus"- "The Greatest Show on Earth Circus."
The tiger on the sides appear on front and back, and share the striped tail "handle."  The tigers have raised detailing, almost like a 3D effect.  Fun relic!
This has been in our smoke-free home, for use 'back in the day', then part of our collection, since acquisition back in the 1980s, when the circus came to town (
we have a few other Barnums items, and Tiger related artwork and collectibles in other listings- we combine wins to save on shipping!).
Measures about 5. 5 inches in height.  Nice size for display.
Would make super addition to any Tiger or Barnums souvenir collection, big cat fans, cup afficionados, circus super fans, and more!
Condition:
Good, pre-owned condition. Over 30 years old!  Some rubbing off/wear/paint missing on images in some areas, and some possible slight discoloration from washing, but overall well preserved for its age. A few minor stray marks or scuffs in a few spots.  Some minor denting on inside (where the tigers heads are on the outside, so probably original to manufacture). The graphics are still sharp, some wearing off of the wording in "Bros" on side between the tigers.
(HAS NOT BEEN TESTED FOR LEAKAGE.  PLEASE NOTE, OLDER PLASTICS ARE SOLD FOR DISPLAY ONLY PURPOSES AS OLD PLASTICS/THE SEALS TOO, TEND TO BECOME LESS RESISTANT OVER TIME.)
Bottom has the Barnum info and 1988 (Made in China).
