C1925 Outstanding Antique Anti Prohibition Beer Mug \"Who Wants to be a Camel? For Sale

Outstanding Antique Anti Prohibition Beer Mug \"Who Wants to be a Camel?
Antique stoneware 4.25\" tall BEER MUG is a political statement against the Prohibition Party from approximately 1925. \"A CAMEL CAN GO EIGHT DAYS WITHOUT A DRINK -- BUT WHO WANTS TO BE A CAMEL?\" My research shows that the Camel was used (and is still used I believe) as a mascot of the Prohibition Party and the following information is from that website. Influential political cartoonist Thomas Nast (1840-1902), he who gave the elephant to be the symbol of the Republican Party and the donkey for that of the Democratic Party, also gave the camel to the Prohibition Party. Nast drew for Harper\'s Weekly during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. Nast chose the camel to represent the Prohibition Party because, like Prohibitionists generally, camels don\'t drink very often, and, when they do drink, they drink only water. Originally a dromedary, the symbol was later changed to the Bactrian camel in order not to be associated with a logo on a certain brand of cigarettes.
