Animated Movie Mug Appraisal

Disney's Pocahontas 'Colors of the Wind Collection' Mug in Original Box

This item is a collectible ceramic mug featuring characters from Disney's animated film, 'Pocahontas', presented in its original retail packaging. The mug itself features a colorful depiction of Pocahontas and John Smith embracing, set against a red background with additional imagery. This imagery is visible through a clear cut-out on the front of the box. The box predominantly features a deep navy blue color with 'Disney's POCAHONTAS' emblazoned in a stylized gold and red font at the top. Below the window for the mug, the phrase 'COLORS of the WIND COLLECTION' is displayed in a vibrant orange and purple italicized font, suggesting it is part of a larger themed series. The box has red borders and decorative elements at the top, bottom, and along the sides of the window. The construction of the box appears to be cardboard, likely with a flap closure, though only the front is clearly visible. The overall condition of the packaging shows some signs of wear, including minor creasing or softening of the cardboard, particularly noticeable near the bottom edge. There is also a small tear or scuff mark visible on the top right corner of the box. Despite these minor imperfections, the graphics on the box remain vibrant and largely intact. The mug itself, as seen through the window, appears to be in good condition without visible chips or cracks. Given the film's release in 1995, this item likely dates from the mid to late 1990s. The quality of the printing on both the box and the mug suggests standard Disney licensed merchandise.
