1941-48 Old Spice Friendship Shaving Mug with Original Lid

Available is this beautifully preserved 1940's Old Spice lathering mug. This mug variety predates all the more common glass mugs and was produced by the A. E. Hull Pottery Company in Crooksville, Ohio beginning in 1941. It features the “Ship Friendship” and is definitely more primitive than the latter glass versions. They can often have slight factory imperfections which were commonly found on pottered items. It was designed for a 5.5 ounce soap cake. Dimensions are 3.0" high X 4.5" rim to handle.
