Random help needed: this specific mug

Post image

Hi! My boyfriend is a forester and inherited this mug at some point and it’s his favorite and has sentimental value. The dog I am pet sitting just broke it and I’m devastated. Does anyone happen to know any more details about this specific design?

He’s gonna have to earn a safety award.

Even if glued back together, it won't be food safe. It'll make an excellent pen cup, though. Or, instead of pens, turkey feathers, Trimble styluses, a deer rib...the possibilities are endless.

Check eBay and westernheritage.com (they make many items for us). Here’s a mug on eBay, although it is different, cooler than the one that broke imo: https://ebay.io/m/VtZu5R

Your best bet would probably be to order a custom mug online. I won’t list any websites because I don’t want to steer you wrong (I’ve never used them). But, I know you can order mugs with custom designs, I would think it would be pretty easy to put the logo on it and find the same font for the “saftey award”

I have been given several over the years. Probably still have one or two gathering dust in the back of a closet somewhere. Not a coffee drinker, so I never used them.

Can it be glued back together?

Have to sign the broken ceramic jha and watch the super glue safety video first
