This Old House


This week's mug is a wonderful find!  A new neighbor discovered my love of Magic Mugs and found she had one in storage.  She brought it to me out of the blue and what a great mug it is! From the PBS television show "This Old House with Bob Vila," this mug was given out to subscribers during one of the annual subscription/donation telethons. My estimate is mid to late 1990s, which is when this 'old style' of ink was popular.  

On the right side of the mug (above) is the logo for the show, This Old House.  As you turn the mug around, a long image of a house and it's fence stretches around from the left to the center of the mug. 


When hot liquid is added to the mug, the house and fence clear to show a brand new 'fixed up' home.  The color change is good and there are no nicks or damage. 

Thanks, New Neighbors!
