... To ask if you have a London Underground letter mug from 2016

Hi everyone

Not sure if this is allowed here... Please mods do move it if not 🙈

Back in 2019 we bought these mugs at the London Transport Museum. They have a letter on the Underground font and they are definitely the favourite mugs in this house. It's called the Johnstone 100 collection.

The other day I smashed my husband's by accident 😭 a tragic incident involving hasty granola unpacking 😬

For Christmas I would love to get him a new one. They were discontinued in 2019. I contacted LU Collection who seem to own the rights, they say they didn't make them (?!?!?!) And won't tell me who did 😡

So does anyone have any of these mugs? Ideally P but I'd take pretty much any letter 😂😂😂 it's all about the look and feel. Name your price. If you know of any other good places to ask online that would be great too. I just thought there's been so many threads about "my favourite mug" on here someone might have one at the back of the cupboard...

Vinted might be a good place to try, might have to try searching for different things though.
The Lu collections you mentioned do tube line ones that look very similar in style/handle etc - worth trying one of those for size?

I’m sure you’re aware but if the letter isn’t the concern, can’t you just buy the current version? It seems to be the same shaped handle https://lucollections.com/products/johnston-100-mug
