I have a collection of Stoke Mugs..Both sizes of the 1963 mug. Portmeirion League Cup,. Wembley 2011 plus a few others dating back to the 50s-60s... Never seen that Carltonware one before though....Might take a punt on that
My wife had a colleague from Bristol pick up a Stoke mug for me, she brought it back to Toronto for my Christmas stocking. Was a very nice surprise (also got a cool Stoke t-shirt too).
Unfortunately, I have never seen any Stoke gear for sale over here.
I have just bought myself a new Stoke Mug, I like a cup of tea or coffee in my mug. And it got me wondering just how many of us drink out of a Stoke related liquid holder be it a mug for tea / coffee or another type of Beverage.
I've got a bone china one with 'I'm a Stokie born and bred' on that I use a lot, got the black League Cup one and a couple of others, but I do think tea tastes better out of a china mug or cup.
Not terribly keen on those Moorcroft mugs to be honest.
Have the black league cup mug somewhere, it was my nans. Have a lot of family links going back with Stoke, so he had quite a lot of memorabilia and all that.
Have a few of the modern mugs although right now at work, I'm using a Red and White striped mug that looks like our strip. Everyone at work assumes it's a Stoke mug, so I tell them that it is.
In fact, it was Christmas present and came with a candy cane inside Close enough eh?

I've got 2 at work - one's a bit boring with just the St George's cross wrapped around and the words Stoke City, whilst the other is from 2011/12 and has all the fixtures printed on it. I keep my favourite 2 for home though - 1 celebrating promotion back to the old Division 1 in the late seventies and the other one has a pink panther on it and all the fixtures for that season (can't remember exactly but must be mid-80's). The best thing about this mug is that all the away fixtures just give the name of the ground, and it's great to see the old names such as Roker Park, Ayresome Park etc on it - those were the days!!

That one with the club crest and date on is one I used to have, until I fell up the back step, headlong into the kitchen and smashed it, hurting myself in the process. Loved that mug, and haven't had a better one since!
