Own this collection and it will get the attention of everyone who enters your home. Starbucks has never repeatedthe Barista II Skyline Series. Very, very few of these mugs exist today - Less than 100,000 Barista II Skyline Series mugs were ever sold. Each city mug was only sold in the city it depicted. Most owners have less than ten mugs and only a few people on earth have a collection as complete as this one!
This collection was accumulated between 2002 and 2003 by traveling to and having an adventure in every city depicted, then buying the mug! It represents a golden era of a life in which a mug was only purchased if the city was experienced! I hope this collection brings you as much joy as it has brought me. Own it now!
