My dad broke my favorite mug tonight. It was a Bloomingdale's Big Brown Mug, that looked like this: mug.

Bloomingdale's changed the way their mugs look like to this:



And of course I can't find a replacement online.

The Bloomingdale's Brown Bag is a classic of modern typography. I didn't own the mug out of any great love for the store.

Yeah, I'm pretty fucking upset. It was a great mug, just the right handsize and thickness.

How badly broken is it? Can it be glued back together?

It was definitely in a thousand pieces. :(

Argh. That's really frustrating. And I like that rounded shape and darker color on the older mugs better too. I had a set of plain white mugs that were of similar shape, 5 bucks at Walgreens for the set of 4 and my husband has been steadily breaking them. I'm down to 1 left and Walgreens doesn't carry that particular mug anymore - so frustrating.
