    John Frank first designed a 5 oz. elephant mug as a fund raiser for the National Republican Women's Club in 1968. It was so successful that the mug was added to the production line the following year, turning it into another collector series. (Naturally the Nixon/Agnew ticket winning the election helped in the decision as well).
    In 1975, Joniece Frank designed a Democrat donkey compliment. In innaugural years, mugs bear the name of the President and Vice President. All mugs show the date and have the GOP or DEM on them. Collectors should note that these mugs were produced up until 2005, when the plant officially closed.
    Excellent condition; no chips, nicks, cracks or repairs. Please view the photos for a full representation of the item.
