Bendigo Stoneware Mugs

I see some of this stuff sells pretty well. i haven't been able to find any of these salt glazed stoneware mugs with the what looks like anniversary logo on them. I have three and one smaller one with nothing on it but the makers stamps. .29 cents at Goodwill so not to terribly worried about it Any help appreciated as always.
I know they are not old but still couldn't find any.

Mike, I didn't find any like yours, either.

All I found was that the T.E. mark in your last photo was for Terence Emond, who supposedly worked for the company from Sep 1978 until 1980.

Of course, with the 1982 date on the front of the mugs, that may mean that: 1) the dates given are wrong, or 2) "T.E." did his thing "in advance" and the mugs were produced after he left the company.

I'm curious, too, about the 1858-1982 dates. Who commemorates 124 years in business?

Hmmm. A mystery!

 

Thanks for checking,
I was on that site yesterday also because of the four I have there is three different potters marks. TE as you already know, KC for Kevin Campbell, 1977-1990. And MP for Mody Porter, 1977-?. Two of the larger ones actually read 1858-1981 and the third is 1982. I sent an inquiry to Bendigo's website.

 

Bendigo returned my email and asked for pictures. When they received them this is the response i got.

Hi,

This shaped mug was being made in the late 1970s and early 1980s and adapted for the 125 year celebration of Bendigo Pottery. We are not sure how many were made. They are wood fired and salt glazed ‘Epsomware’. No idea of value.

 

Well, it's nice that they answered, but it's a shame they didn't say much beyond the obvious!

 

yeah i know. I had to ask her why with the anniversary in 1983 why were these dated 1981 and 1982.
This is what she said.

(If they started in beginning of 1858 ( some say 1857) then by end of 1982 that would be 125 years. But we are now beyond 155 years so still going strong! Cheers)

So now I am wondering how i should list them for sale. As a group with three different potters, or separate?

 

finally found one. Sold at Lugosi Auctioneers In Australia in December. All it said was estimated value 20 to 40 AUD
Which is 15 - 30 usd. Price realized? not uploaded so couldn't see what it sold for
