For the road warrior … a smart and stylish mid-century collapsible travel cup, chrome-plated with a gilt-washed interior and housed in its original stitched leather case. As practical as it is charming, the cup unfolds to reveal a functional handle that clips neatly to the side. Whether for enjoying a quick roadside nip or a wee dram by the campfire, this elegant little piece is an ideal companion for the gentleman on the go.
Collapsible travel cups were a staple of the gentleman’s kit in mid-20th century Britain—used by campers, drivers, officers, and sportsmen alike. Compact, durable, and discreet, they fit easily into a satchel or glovebox. The leather case in this example is in pristine condition, and the cup itself exhibits only light wear from use. A great conversation piece and a thoughtful gift for the adventurous spirit.
