NFL My #1 Team (Panthers)

This magic mug is a licensed mug from the TEAM NFL collection of products.  On one side is the "MY #1 Team" along with the "Team NFL" logo.  Beside it is a hand holding a remote. Even the remote is happy that it's GAME TIME!
On the other side is a large TV with a dark rectangle over the screen.  
When hot liquid is added, the screen clears: 
In this case showing the logo for the Carolina Panthers.  (I'm guessing that this is a line of mugs available with any NFL team logo and name.) 
Beside the image on the main side, is the copyright:
COPYRIGHT 1993 IMAGE DESIGN CONCEPTS DENVER, CO
OFFICIAL LICENSED PRODUCT OF NFLPA

Perhaps the most interesting part of this particular mug is on the bottom. Usually I don't add the "Made in China" or information off the bottom, but in this case, it is interesting.  
On the bottom is a paper sticker with the  number ASI/61920 above the Logo for HOUZE. Houze is a  known name in the magic mug field, though I am unsure if they are still in business.  Below this is a hand written number X2-1004.  Since it is easy to assume that this mug is (was) available with any of the NFL teams' logs and names, this appears to have been a salesman's or showroom sample.  A great addition to my collection!
