Just got this at a flea market. Don't know anything about it. No markings on bottom. On the side with the handle there is a logo. It's a rectangle with an arrow pointing up and the word CHEINCO. It's about 4" tall. Any info would be helpful. Thanks.
Very unusual that clip looks like it was designed to snap off and on something(It would be called "quick release"today)like handlebars it looks like something my mother put clothes pins in.Is that thing taperd?

"The Un-Cola" slogan was started in 1975.
@ straightleg, it is slightly tapered.
My mother was still hanging some of her stuff on the line in 1975 but I doubt 7up was into promotional items aimed at people that did by then.Maybe since kids are out of the equation it was used in a store next to the 7up rack or machine to hold cupons,straws,bottle caps,nuts,spit etc.
I just bought the same cup today at a vintage store in Hawley Pa.
Trying to find info on it also.
