Heavy old 3 3/4" stoneware mug, curved in to 2 3/4" across the top, with a generous handle, thin molded band at the base, and gold around the top. Light tan inside and out; on one side in re, "Souvenir / Topeka, Kans." Glazed base; unsigned. Very good or better condition; a little gold has worn from the rim, just where a righthanded person would handle it or drink from it.  No chips, cracks, scratches, crazing, or loss of writing.

*Feel free to ignore any Item Specific that seems especially silly, irrelevant, inappropriate, or redundant. eBay frequently adds things without consulting the seller, and which I don’t always catch. Expecting help from eBay Categories? Good luck.

I always ship the business day after I receive payment, and pack multiple purchases together to save on shipping.

Buyer pays actual USPS postage; there is no handling fee, and I pay for all packing materials. By clicking on “Shipping and Payments,” you can check the postage before you bid.

Printed material containing advertising – even old, obsolete advertising – cannot be sent Media Mail.

*I don’t know why eBay says I don’t accept returns; I have tried to change that on the listing: an item may be returned if it is substantially different from how I have described it. I will pay return postage.

USPS has changed the names of their traditional service. There are only 2 things we need to know: 1) Rates went up again in January and 2) First Class and Retail Ground (now called Ground Advantage) now include insurance up to $100.00.  Like Priority, Ground Advantage postage varies with distance. I ship from Arizona.

Because of the new rates, and because it now includes insurance, I am going to use Ground Advantage for everything. Sometimes it’s a little slower, but the bottom line is it’s cheaper, sometimes considerably.

I will contact the winner when I ship the item, to let you know it’s on the way.

Thank you for looking, and for wading through the fine print.
