Gesundheit mug
Creator: Neustadtl Brewing Company
Date: between 1933 and 1935
Stoneware mug with printed design depicting man drinking a pint of beer labeled "non-alcoholic." The word "Gesundheit" (meaning "good health to you") and its accompanying image are associated with the Neustadtl Brewing Company of Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania (1933-1935). The mug was owned by Frank Haucke (1892-1977) of Council Grove, Kansas. Haucke attended Kansas State University for one year before World War I, where he served with the New York National Guard Ambulance Company 108 as a Sergeant in France. He was the 1930 republican nominee for Kansas Governor and was the Kansas State Commander for the American Legion.

Mug
Creator: Cropper, May
Date: 1907
Cylindrical porcelain mug with slightly flared base and open handle. Landscapes painted on sides. According to marks on mug, it was painted by May Cropper of Pittsburg, Kansas, for Frank Hobart in 1907. Hobart donated the mug to the Topeka Club where it was used to decorate the Club House. The Topeka Club (1889-1921) was a social organization primarily consisting of prominent Topekans but also drawing membership from across the state. It was founded as a place for its members to relax and exchange ideas, and to entertain friends and acquaintances visiting Topeka. The mug's owner, Frank Hobart, was a Topeka druggist who trademarked the word "Hondurasparilla" for a type of blood medicine.
