    I bought this old mug at a local estate sale here in Kansas City and can't for the life of me find anything online about the maker. It looks like it might be 'Mittons-Boxmeyer Glassware Co. Kansas City MO'?

    Is anyone able to find information about this maker? Would also be interested in opinions of the decade it might have been made. thanks

    There was a Beamish China & Glassware in Kansas City, MO. Wonder what the connection was.

    Here's a mention of the company in 1909. I find mentions in 1908, 1910 and 1912 too. Hotel and bar supplier as above.

    Wow, that's amazing! Thanks everyone for the incredible information and yes it definitely looks like it was made for high production...nothing fancy about it at all. It'll find a good place in my old house.
