On auction is a factory authorized coffee cup available only through Volkswagen dealerships to celebrate the recent announcement of the Concept One (New Beetle) in 1996.  I bought this cup at a VW dealership in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1996...just as VW was raising the spirits of those longing for a re-release of the New Beetle.  

I bought this cup (and a tie/lapel pin which I will offer separately) as I had two vintage VWs at the time and still love the old VWs.  The cup sat in my display case for years until I packed things away for safe keeping.  I am trying to thin out my collection and thought it time to move this on to a new home where it can provide another VW enthusiast some joy.

 

The cup is really unique (and was expensive at the time...even for buying it from a dealership).  It is a heavy ceramic cup that looks to be about 12-14 oz.  The color is perfect black and front and back of the cup has a 2.5" x 3" grey silkscreen, iconic three circle image that inspired the shape of the Beetle (old and new).  The best part about the cup is the handle -- also in the shape of the New Beetle.  It was designed to celebrate that wonderful car and certainly is destined as a collectible. 

The cup is MADE IN THE USA.

Again, these are authorized VW items available through the dealerships.

Thanks for your interest!
