This lovely collector\'s mug from the Chespeake and Ohio Railroad / C&O Railway, features the adorable, sleeping kitten mascot, Chessie. This tabby kitten was first featured in \"Fortune\" magazine in an advertisement for the railway with \"Sleep Like a Kitten\" as it\'s logo. C&O officially became the Chessie System in 1973 and still operates under this name today. The sleeping \"Chessie\" remains their logo/mascot. A perfect gift for the railroad enthusiast in your life - or cat lover! Chessie is a beloved image!This mug is in excellent pre-owned, pre-loved condition. There are no cracks, no chips, no breaks. The Chessie image and printed information on the back of the mug show minimal to no signs of wear. The mug is white with lovely shades of butter yellow, pink, gray and black. The back of the mug reads, \"Adopted as the mascot of the C&O Railway in 1933 and nowthe symbol of the Chessie System Railroads\" The mug is 3.75 inches in height and 3 inches wide. Hand wash to preserve the images. Please refer to the photos as they are an integral part of the item\'s description.
I do my best to provide accurate item descriptions. My vintage/antique pieces are all pre-owned, likely pre-used (sometimes-pre-loved). Please expect that your item will potentially show signs of this. For all of my listings - including NWT, NWOT items, I strive to be transparent in my item descriptions, condition of the item and photos. Please contact me with any questions, comments or requests for additional photos. I will respond as soon as possible. I want buyers to be happy with their purchase; I want your transaction with me to be exactly the way I want my transactions to be when I am the buyer.
For shipping purposes, I pack many of my items in boxes that I am re-using as this significantly benefits our environment by reducing waste, conserving resources, and lowering energy consumption. This practice helps me to contribute to a more sustainable shipping process.
A Little Note About Shipping:
I know shipping can be expensive these days, and I truly understand the hesitation when you see the cost. Please know that a great deal of time and care goes into every package I send.
I carefully curate the items I offer, inspect and clean them, and then spend considerable time packing each piece safely and securely—especially my vintage glass, china, and other fragile treasures. Quality packing materials and careful preparation take both time and expense, but I believe your purchase deserves to arrive just as safely as it left me.
Thank you for understanding and for supporting my little shop. I genuinely appreciate every order!
