Good to see all areas of the economy are not struggling. This Burger King coffee mug just sold on eBay for $79.00. Produced by Anchor Hocking / Fire King (I believe the in the 70′s), these restaurant advertising mugs are much sought after in the collectible world. Burger King seems to be one of the most rare. Others are from A&W Root Beer, Burger Queen, Ponderosa Steak House, and of course the most common: McDonalds. A little research on Terapeak shows the Burger King mugs currently (past 90 days) selling in the range of  $75 – 122.50. McDonalds mugs are currently selling in the range of $2 – 18, with some rare variations selling for as much as $217.50.

Locally the Blue Circle (unknown maker) mug is by far the most sought after. One is coming up for auction on January 10′th, I expect it to bring $60 – 100.
