Mr. Bali Hai Concave OMC Mug - for Reginald Wong & Co., Inc.
aka Vintage Mr. Bali Hai in 3 collections
This mug is based on the original Mr. Bali Hai, the mascot for the Bali Hai Restaurant in San Diego. This version of the mug was manufactured by OMC and bears the OMC sticker, and has a concave base marked "Reginald Wong & Co., Inc." printed on the bottom. Reginald Wong (1943-2011) was a Boston area businessman and an all-around consultant to those who wanted to start businesses in Boston's Chinatown, helping them find contractors, secure permits, and purchase equipment. Much of the barware and dinnerware that he secured for these businesses is marked with his company name but his company was technically a distributor and not a manufacturer. Both OMC and Jackson China worked with Reginald Wong ("Uncle Reggie") and he was instrumental in helping new Chinese entrepreneurs to start their businesses. Mr. Bali Hai is an oblong head with a bone through the nose and large white hoop earrings, with sleepily lidded eyes (eyes are usually brown, sometimes blue). The mug comes with a lid with two straw holes.
