Vintage Starbucks 1994 The Coffee Connection Acquisition Mug Cup Ultra Rare

Up for your consideration is a 1994 Coffee Connection/Starbucks cup. The Coffee Connection, a chain of coffee stores which first opened in Boston's Harvard Square in 1975, was purchased by Starbucks Coffee in 1994 and run as a separate entity up until 1996. In the end there were 18 stores that eventually changed their name to Starbucks. This rare 14oz mug was offered in those stores during that 2 year transition period. Both sides display The Coffee Connection logo and the base is stamped with the Starbucks siren logo. Made exclusively for Starbucks...made in China and decorated in the United States. Numerous pictures are included in this listing and will serve as the best description of it's condition. The mug pictured is the actual mug up for purchase and was used only in a collection display. There are absolutely no cracks, chips or stains. The inside is shiny and without marks.
