1987 World Champions Pioneer Press Dispatch Commemorative Mug

This is a ceramic coffee mug, predominantly white in color, with a classic, sturdy handle. The mug features a graphic design replicating the front page of a newspaper, specifically the 'Pioneer Press Dispatch'. The headline prominently reads 'Believe it!' and is dated from 1987, celebrating a 'WORLD CHAMPIONS' event, likely referring to a sports victory. Below the headline, there's an image of a baseball player, possibly from the Minnesota Twins, given the visible 'Twins' logo on his jersey, in the throes of celebration or action. The newspaper layout includes columns of text, replicating news articles, though the text itself is too small to be legible from the image, serving more as a design element to mimic a newspaper. The mug appears to be in good condition with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear to the ceramic or the printed graphic. The colors on the graphic appear vibrant and unfaded. Its construction suggests a standard mass-produced commemorative item from the late 1980s. The shape is a typical cylindrical mug with a slightly tapered top, and a broad, comfortable C-shaped handle. It exhibits a smooth, glossy finish typical of glazed ceramic. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures visible on the exterior from this angle. The item is currently resting on what appears to be a silver-colored coaster.
