This is a mug from 1674. Doesn’t it look like something you could buy at Starbucks?

Coffee shops were common in bigger British cities in the 1670s, and according to Pepys, they shouted out your name when your drink was ready. People sometimes gave hilarious fake names for a laugh. Very little truly changes ☕️

@dirtysexyhistory @histodons This looks like something Kate Beaton (Hark! A Vagrant) might have drawn. Actually, that would open some questions regarding possible time travel…
@SrViteri @dirtysexyhistory @histodons I mean, I'd buy any of these mugs from Kate Beaton's line if she decides to make it.
