Classic Cups

No way. No way. Indian in a Tee-pee tyin knots.

Dis: If you can find some mugs that are truly iconic then that is fine. Are those starwars mugs iconic as mugs or iconic only because of their relation to starwars? Were those part of a massive line put out?

Classic:

Good grief.

The mannequin is fine though. I encourage mannequin pictures, as classic cups and mannequins somehow go together. Maybe you get a Solo Jazz filled with Cherry Pepsi and you walk past Macy's as it is closing, and you see the mannequins as the security grilles are coming down, and the lights are dim.

This is the best appearance the Orange Cup has made on the web, right here. I ultimately want a stock photo of it, but this will let everyone know what it looks like.

This is the place to post your classic cup images.

 

Solo is a long-time manufacturer and restaurant supplier specializing in disposable foam products. There are other brands to be sure.

 

Their most iconic design is the "Solo Jazz" cup (thanks roasty), pictured below. You can also post classic sugar, salt & pepper, and condiment packet images -- anything for the consumer-on-the-go.

 

Also, be on the lookout for the ultra-rare, orange cup. You've seen it in movie theaters on Seinfeld. We do not know the name of this cup.

I wanna see a 90s c.g. version of this so bad.

Scroll up and down while you look at the cup.

This is getting really good.

I've never had one of those but I often thought about them when I was 6.

May this be our torch, our effulgent beacon, as we continue into the darkness in search of Iconic Cups.

I give you, The Seinfeld Cup, in all its splendor.

So far this thread is worth all the money I've poured into it.

that cup is very boc

the big kahuna burger cup

"that hit the spot"

Something happened to pyramid's "Greek Coffee Cup." It is a PILLAR of Manhattan's disposable coffee heritage.

hug barrels and dixie cups are ace

are we getting into glass territory now? maybe we are.

I have chased so much pizza with that top cup, the "Smokey Velvet" Soda Cup, which was usually filled with Dr. Pepper, not coke.

Probably some Galaga in there too. Battletoads.

It's my lucky day.

these trigger a bit of nostalgia for me:

Yeah those are rephreshing. Anyone ever drink Delaware Punch?

Something about it. I used to get it at this miniature golf course out of an automated machine from the late 70s probably. It dropped the cup down, poured in some round ice, filled it up with the drink of choice. That place was called Cool Crest. It had all these trees and was nice and shady. My grandpa used to take me there all the time. It was very quiet there, you could hear the hum of the drink machine, and the infrequent airplane going by.
