Reginald Wong aka Reggie Wong or Uncle Reggie (1943-2011) was Chinatown (Boston) distributor/restaurateur and community leader sometimes called the "Mayor of Chinatown".  There is a park named after him in Chinatown. He was not a manufacturer. He worked with both OMC and Jackson China. For many years Mr. Wong owned a popular bar in Chinatown called Weggie's Pub, an establishment playfully named for the mispronunciation of his first name.  Thank you to both MyTiki.life (https://mytiki.life/creators/reginald-wong-co-inc) and https://en.everybodywiki.com/Reginald_Wong_Jr. for their interesting online biographies. 

I had 4 of these mugs when I listed them. They are all listed and photographed separately. They are all in similar condition.
