Isaac Asimov TankardThe Asimov piece is quite fragile (the upper rims and part of the sidepieces of the eye-glasses are thin rods of ceramic, shaped to fit and attached to the cast part of the mug before firing). He has white hair, black glasses, and is wearing a brown coat with a white shirt-collar. The robot that makes up the handle is silver-coated.

Specially commissioned by Joel Davis, publisher of ISAAC ASIMOV'S SCIENCE FICTION. Only 3 were ever made. One went to Joel Davis, one to Asimov, and one to George Scithers. The mug has a cobalt blue glazed interior and is about 7" high, 5" wide at the base, and 3" wide at the opening. The Robot is high fired black glaze with white highlights.
