Two paddlers in a long green boat glide beneath the bridge.

The two photos cover the front and back; the strip behind the handle is hidden in both.
Collector notes
- Vancouver also appears in the Been There, Icon and You Are Here checklists. Read the series in the title rather than relying on the city name.
- The seller's photo shows the mug inside a black gift box, which is packaging and not part of the mug. The lettering is pale, so it can look faint in dim photos.
