Product code: RARE Hand Painted Textile top Institute Fraternal Mug 1920 Delta Kappa Phi
Rare antique fraternal mug.
Dated April 24th 1920
I believe it to be the Delta Kappa Phi fraternity associated with the Philadelphia Textile Institute (later Philadelphia University and now Thomas Jefferson University) and later the Lowell Technological Institute (now the University of Massachusetts Lowell, or UMass Lowell), as well as the New Bedford Institute of Textiles and Technology (now part of UMass Darthmouth), the Rhode Island School of Design, North Carolina State University, and Georgia Tech.
From my research it seems top the fraternity was incorporated in the State of Massachusetts in 1905.
A rare mug!
