What's on the mug
- 1Lettering
CAPE COD in lime-green capitals over a dark green circle.
- 2Shingled house
A green-shingled house with white-trimmed windows, a porch and a red-and-white railing stands at the lower left.
- 3Hydrangea
A large hydrangea bloom of small white-and-teal flowers, with big leaves, fills the left edge.
- 4Oysters and lemon
Three oysters on the half shell sit at the top right of the circle, with a lemon slice beside them.
- 5Gull
A grey-green gull perches on top of the pink-and-red bands.
- 6Pink and red bands
Wavy bands in pink and red with tufts of grass cross the top, like dunes at sunset.
- 7Kayaker Side view
A paddler in a red-striped top and green hat paddles a red kayak at the lower left.
- 8Lobster Side view
A red lobster with raised claws stands upright at the left.
- 9Arched bridge Side view
A long arched bridge crosses the water at the upper left. Most of Cape Cod is separated from the mainland by the Cape Cod Canal, which the Sagamore and Bourne bridges cross; the mug doesn't say which bridge this is.[1]
- 10Slender tower Side view
A tall, slender tower with a red base stands in front of the hydrangea.
- 11Cyclist Back view
A cyclist in a red top rides a bike with red wheels past a round tower.
- 12Whales Back view
A grey whale breaches in a spray at the centre and a red-and-pink whale swims at the left. Provincetown, at the tip of the Cape, runs whale watching trips to Stellwagen Bank; the mug doesn't name a place.[1]
- 13Small boat Back view
A small boat with a red hull sails to the left of the breaching whale.
- 14Kite Back view
A green diamond kite with a red tail flies at the top.
- 15Round tower Back view
A round tower covered in pale green dots, with a window and a pink door, rises at the right.
The three photos together cover the whole outside of the mug except the area right behind the handle.
Collector notes
- The seller photos use a bright teal backdrop, which is not part of the mug.
- The design wraps in three big scenes: oysters and hydrangeas at the front, a kayaker and a lobster at the side, a whale and a cyclist on the back.
