Purchasing information-
Both mugs display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The 1920's mug has a large dint to one side and a quite heavy knock to the foot rim so that it wobbles when standing. The hallmarks to both appear a little rubbed in places but are still clearly legible.
