I see these fun, funky, retro mugs popping up here and there and decided to learn about them and look for them a bit. Staffordshire Potteries Limited, from England, started producing cups and dinnerware in the 50s. In the 1960s and 1970s they put their efforts into mugs, also introducing the "Kilnkraft" line in 1972. I love the simple graphics and whimsical colors.
There is a
flickr group dedicated to sharing their photos Stafforshire Potteries mugs treasures. Such a fun little photostream to click through.
Cute stuff, huh?
