Orzel Drury mug with newspaper print on it
I took this mug when we visited the Brown family a while ago now and Beverly said it was made when they were at Orzel, though it wasn't the greatest example!
The heading says Drury, Bombay and Pokeno -

Re: Orzel Drury mug with newspaper print on it
Ev, I just checked this against shapes thinking it might be a new one. Turns out this is the one I initially said maybe to then confirmed.

The newspaper transfer is new of course!
It seems to me Orzel did not make many mugs with transfers, beyond its extensive range of beer mugs, family members (My Dad's Favourite) and events (21st), and monogrammed ones for special orders. Settlers was a whole range.

Info found at the Archives show that this was the Drury Mug with adverts from the Southern Cross newspaper 1870. The transfers were made by Orzel.
