This mug is the most basic model, produced until Victor closed its doors in the late 1980s, but it is a rare model with a lined rim. The stamp on the bottom is from a later series, suggesting it was produced in the 1970s or 1980s.

The color is not pure white, but a soft off-white that is characteristic of Victor. It is in very good condition, with very few scratches or stains on the bottom, and is in better condition than a poorly made deadstock.

Please note that handle size varies from individual to individual, so for convenience we will sell them in "small (about 1-2 fingers)" and "large (about 2 fingers)" sizes (the size will vary for people with small or large hands).

Regarding sizes : There are two sizes, M and L, and the difference in height is small, but the diameter and capacity are different.

Capacity is
The medium size is approximately 175 ml and the large size is approximately 210 ml.

Even though the sizes are different, there is not much difference in thickness, and you won't feel much difference in the mouthfeel. However, because they are made thick, the capacity may seem quite small from the outside.

About Victor mugs
Founded in 1893, Victor originally grew as a manufacturer of insulators, insulating devices used in electrical wires. However, during World War II, the insulator business stagnated, and the company began exploring the possibility of manufacturing ceramics using the same raw materials as insulators.

In the early 1940s, the US Navy requested a coffee mug that could withstand the rocking and rolling of a ship, and Victor was ultimately awarded the contract.

Navy's request was for a mug that was thick and durable, without handles that could break if hit, and in response, Victor created the Watchman's Mug, a mug shaped like a Japanese teacup.

During World War II, they also began producing thicker, more durable bowls for military use, which continued to be produced for some time after the war. As for mugs, they also made improvements to the Watchman's Mug, retaining the thick construction but adding handles.

Even after the war, Victor continued to make simple, durable mugs with little change in design. This simplicity and durability gained them great popularity among restaurants and diners, and they became a widely loved standard for coffee mugs.
