CAHAPOSHAU Iowa Tourism Organization

This is another of those mugs where I can't seem to find much history on it.  On the front of the mug is the outline of the state of Iowa with the header CAHAPOSHAU.  When hot liquid is added, you can then see the names of five southwestern counties, with the first two letters of each county name in bold. (CAss, HArrison, POttaattamie, SHelby, AUdobon) These letters, when put together, spell the name CAHAPOSHAU.  You can also see the counties outlines there in the lower left.  

On the opposite side, you again see the name of the organization and a logo, with the tag line "Serenity and Country Warmth"   This is not a retail mug, and was probably given to supporters or members of the organization.  

This is another of those mugs which no longer has a color change, most likely due to Microwave damage.  

Design: One Plus
Thermochromic: 1 color (damaged) 
Type: Freebie.
