31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS: Vintage B. Kliban Cat Coffee Mugs

The famous B. Kliban cat was created in the 1970s as a cartoon character and went on to appear on a host of merchandise including coffee mugs…so for this entry in the 2016 version of 31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS, I bring you this vintage "Love a Cat" B. Kliban coffee mug. Whether you are just window shopping, searching for a Kliban mug or you are collecting all of them, I know this one will make you smile.

A few of my favorites include the B. Kliban-themed travel mugs, which include Hawaii and San Francisco; the athletic mugs, including a colorful football mug in which Kliban declares his love of football by clinging to it; and the Christmas mugs that include Bah, Humbug! Peace, Season's Greetings, Pizza on earth and Christmas antlers. Of course, I also love this simple Love a Cat mug and the Sigma Taste Setter figural mugs, the high class cat mug, the chef cat mug...

Some of these mugs are rarer than others. They are, after all, vintage mugs from the 1970s and 1980s. A few of the most valuable ones sold in December, 2015, were the New York themed 'I Love New York' mug that sold for $77 and the 'Big Cat Pink' face and 'Love that Java' mugs, which sold for $50 around that same time frame. Today, you can find Kliban's New York and L.A. themed mugs here on eBay.
