This mug features a caricature of President Richard Nixon. The face, especially the nose, extends out from the surface about one inch. The ears are made to look like an elephant. The left side, behind the ears, reads "DICK" in raised letters with three raised stars. The right side, behind the ears, shows a hand with a raised index finger and a cloud with a pointed tip that reads, "Rumph!" The curved handle has the face of an eagle with wings extending to the surface of the mug. The underside reads: "Rumph 1971 USA."
