I bought five of these beauties for $1.25. And to think I had to think about it.
Anonymous J left a comment on my weekend post regarding those stylish mugs I bought for a song at Vincent de Paul's Value Shoppe. She speculates that I may have found Kathie Winkle cups. I've done some not-very thorough Googling, but did find a link to some pictures of her work.

Thank you Anonymous J for letting me know about the exciting designs of Ms. Winkle.
not sure, but I love them either way!
