Wonderful
Shrine of North America Shaving Mug
This beautiful Shrine of North America mug depicts
a detailed desert scene with an Egyptian theme that wraps completely around
the mug. There are two Shrine emblems with the Crescent Moon, Scimitar,
Pharaoh, and star. The mug is hand-painted with the name R.J. Thompson, and is
in perfect condition, except for some minor crazing in the glaze which is
normal for a piece of this age (c.1920). The gold shows no wear and is
original to the mug. It appears to have had very little use. On the
bottom is a stamp showing the mug was made by K.T. & K. (Knolls, Taylor &
Knolls). It measures 3-5/8 inches tall x 3-5/8 inches in diameter across
the top rim.
