This mug was created by Polynesian Pottery exclusively for the Waikiki Trader Vic's location, for serving their "Octopus" drink. This may be an earlier prototype of the more common short Octopus mug. The mug is a cylinder, with two octopi on the front, and the words "Trader Vic's The Octopus" in raised letters on the back. Glazed in either green or brown.
