Tiki Mugs
Early Tepco Hula Girl Mug
aka Big Blue Sky Tepco Hula Girl Mug, Samoan Fog Cutter in 0 collections
This hula girl mug was manufactured by Tepco and is very similar to the regular Tepco Hula Girl mug but is unmarked. It features an abstract hula girl next to two palm trees. She is wearing a reddish brown skirt and lei (as opposed to white on later mug version). Two white birds are flying overhead. The most noticeable distinction is that this mug has a blue sky that extends from the top rim of the mug past the white bird and almost to the wahine's head. The glazing has a bit more detail and this mug is similar in style to the earlier 1940s era Trader Vic's Samoan Fog Cutter Mugs.
