Could this be a Mark Cleverley mug ?? Yes as it's an 1131 Hillis Mug!
Not sure about this one - so tall and narrow. I think the handle is wrong, but thought perhaps it was a Mark Cleverley design. It is a rich chocolate / bronze / slate colour - almost metallic if you know what I mean.
The base is difficult to photograph, it has thick glaze, but can make out: (two initials- S A ?) White Associates and By Crown Lynn New Zealand, with stylised figures with raised arms in the centre

I've seen quite a few of these mugs on Trademe -
must take notice of the details of the next one ~.~

mrnarna has one of these - I think it said "Designer C. A. Hillis Associates" on the base with "By Crown Lynn New Zealand" under a logo of three stylised figures. But the initials could be open to interpretation and the Hillis could be Willis - my photo of it is blurry and the glaze thick.

Thank you Tony, it is really hard to read. Do I have this post in the right category? I wondered where it was made etc.

The glaze is certainly similar to other known Luke Adams ones. I had a vague memory it might actually have been "D A Hillis Associates" and googling that got to an expired TradeMe listing # 396619207 for a beaker made in 1972 for a conference.

From the 4 digit shapes without a designated factory list you posted today Ev, is this then a 1131?

I wonder what the [for Canada] represents ..... the date looks right so perhaps they made more than Canada required ...... ??
It is apparent that the list is working already, I'm extremely pleased to say

Perhaps the conference was in Canada?
