Bottoms Up Jiggling Nudie Mug
aka. Bottoms Up Nodder Mug
MAY BE WRONG TEMPLATE "Drink or Bust" is the correct match for bottoms up (see comparison photos). This one is base stamped "Foreign Bourne of Harlesden Ltd Regd. Design 938,080" and also has "Patent. T.T" in raised lettering. I sourced it from UK, thus the reg number.

Bottoms Up Jiggling Nudie Mug
aka Bottoms Up Nodder Mug in 5 collections
This is a handled mug showing the back of a black haired nude wahine. Mug is airbrushed and has a wood grain. The wahine's bum is on brass hinges and jiggles back and forth with lettering that reads: "Bottoms Up". The bottom of the mug is marked with a "G" in a wreath. This mark also occurs with the addition of "Japan" or "Occupied Japan". It is a Noritake contract mark for Giftcraft Importers of Toronto Canada in operation during the 50's and 60's. There is a matching mug showing the front of the wahine with breasts that jiggle and lettering along the side which reads: "Let 'Them' Swing".
