Description

We believe that this mug was made at the Urshelsky glass factory on the basis of a number of signs. The quality, structure and color of glass, it is fully consistent with the mug #456 (photos from 4 to 9). The shape and design of the two mugs are completely similar. They differ only in size. The upper part of the mug is cylindrical, without reducing the diameter. This distinguishes it from all imported mugs.
We often see this type of mug in pre-war films and in old photographs. Why they are rarely on sale - we have no answer, only assumptions. This mug looked beautiful in the film frame with a beer and without. Just a handy mug. This type of mug was used in filming and more modern films, such as "Seven old men and one girl" (1968), Vitsin Georgiy Mikhailovich mug and "Irony of fate, or light steam" (1975), Shirvindt Alexander Anatolyevich mug.
