Vintage Russ Berrie and Company "Stay Cool" Cat on an Ice Cube Mug

Description

Vintage Russ Berrie and Company Mug in Very Good Vintage Condition w/ several Pottery Dimples & some Glazing Inconsistencies, notably on the Bottom of the Handle where it attaches to the Mug, but otherwise no chips, cracks, or nicks.
Russ Berrie and Company "established a subsidiary in the United Kingdom" in 1979 and as this Mug is Made in England, we believe it to be c. 1970s.
The Artwork on the Mug features a Large Blonde Cat Relaxing Gratefully on a Giant Melting Ice Cube w/ the Phrase, "Stay Cool," underneath Him.
The bottom of the Mug reads:
