Korean War Japanese-Made US Army 187th Air Regimental Combat Team (RCT) Beer Mug

This is a Korean War beer mug for the United States Army 187th Air Regimental Combat Team made in Japan. The mug is pink and is slightly textured to suggest a barrel. One side shows the team's insignia with gilt details and the other reads HELL'S ANGELS RAKKASAN around a winged parachute. The focal point on the mug is arguably the handle, which is a nude woman in a slight backbend.

Circa Korean War.

4-1/16" height and 5-1/16" width.

Hand-painted china.

This is from a United States Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VEJX09 LBDEX9/10 SBJJX3/14

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): Mug shows little wear with some very light crazing and has a slight spot of discoloration near the inside top.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
