AT&T Advertising Engineer Outing Tankard From 1986 But NEW Salesman Sample

Description: I own an advertising specialty company - now in our 45th year I am happy to report - and worked in the industry for many years prior to establishing my own firm. For many years my best client was what was formerly known as "The Bell System". Of course after divestiture, it was broken up into what was generally called the "Baby Bells" - and later morphed into many variations. So over the years we worked very closely with Western Electric, AT&T, Southern Bell, BellSouth, Lucent Technologies, OFS, Avaya, etc. I collected many over-run samples, one-or-a-kind spec samples, and the likes. I am now selling much of that collection via eBay. Here is an unusual over-run samples from an order I sold AT&T in 1986. For all of these years it has been kept in a closed container in one of our climate controlled sample rooms. And here is what the fortunate buyer will receive: Each year AT&T's Atlanta Works facility in Norcross, GA held an outing for all of those designated as "Engineers". Each year the planning committee for this event asked me to offer several suggestions for a commemorative gift for each attendee - and we were priviledged to supply it. For the event in 1986, the item chosen by the committee was a handsome glass beer tankard. It features a full four fingered handle, tankard style and holds 12 ounces of beer - or any other beverage. My friend in the AT&T graphic department, Al G. created the design. On one side is of course the famous AT&T logo. The other has an interesting montage of engineer tools of the trade, along with the words "Atlanta Works", and the date - Oct. 4, 1986. The height is an impressive 6.5", and holds 12 ounces. The tankard was made in the U.S.A., and of course printed here as well. And an interesting backstory related to this gift -When my contact within the committee initially wrote the order, he called this just what it is - a glass beer tankard. However, the purchasing department would not allow the order to be processed as written. My contact then re-wrote the purchase order as "Engineering Glass Beakers" - and it was approved!!! Although approaching 40 years old, it has never been used, and in NEW condition! And a mentioned, made in the U.S.A. How rare! An excellent addition to anyone who worked at AT&T or collects old Bell System memorabilia. A very rare find for sure. From a smoke-free, pet-free, climate controlled environment. Only $30.00 for this rare -and in all likelihood the only NEW one in existence !!! Plus, you will also receive several FREE telecommunications advertising samples AND a hand-drawn in ink personalized "Thank You" cartoon note! I have many telephone related items listed and will be listing more - along with other old advertising pieces. With 1550+ feedback's and 100% positive responses you can buy from me with confidence! For my international buyers, contact me for details. Thanks for looking...
