I love retro kitchen stuff and I brought home a set of 6 each mugs and bowls. There is an anchor on the bottom of the mugs. Not the usual anchor and H that I associate with Anchor Hocking. I can't find them in any of my books. Any ideas? Thanks.
No ideas but these look great and your photo is excellent!
Thanks racer4four. They are very cool, and a mystery!
looks to be the Anchor Hocking Café Mug, which is available in various colors and décor
Hi TallCakes, thanks! Do you think these are newer? The mark is just an anchor, no box around it. I wish I could find another picture of them.
thanks for all the love!
thanks WeirdPuckett, I have never seen them before either. The mug is hefty, I imagine it would hold 12 oz!
AH has the café mug listed as 16 oz.

bowl might be 'presence':

AH may have done the décor for a specific retail outlet.
Thanks so much. I never thought to go straight to the horses mouth, as they say.
Perhaps I can find out who they were made for. Appreciate your help!
Riply206, thanks for this new info. I haven't heard of these companies before and will check them out. I will also try to get a pic of the anchor. thanks again!
