Year Manufactured: 1960s
Notes: Scarce cup-can. Features the Los Angeles Zoo's iconic twin spires which were designed by Charles Luckman. They served as the centerpiece of the Zoo and gardens from its 1966 opening until their demolition in 2002. This mug is the same size as a 12oz can and would look right at home on your can shelves. Very good condition with a few well-camouflaged humidity spots. A rare piece of Los Angeles history!

Unless otherwise requested, shipping will be fulfilled via USPS or UPS. Insurance on winnings of over $50 is required, as is a handling fee, to cover to cost of labor and materials. Generally, this is 50¢ per can, $1 per tray and bottle, $10 per wooden crate. Medium-sized signs will require a $5-10 handling fee. The handling fee for large items could be quite a bit more. Shipping charges will be combined for multiple lots, of course.
