Does anyone know where I can buy (online) the "I love (heart) NY More
Than Ever" mug seen in the Muppet Christmas movie that ran on NBC
around Thanksgiving. Whoopi used it to get coffee from the "offee
shrub."
Thanks!!

err, that would be "coffee shrub" not "offee shrub" ;-)

Hello,

Milton Glaser designed the original logo in 1976. Last year, he remade
the logo, with a wounded heart, and the words below, "More Than Ever".
You can read more on the original logo and the updated one at the
links below. I've seen this mug at almost EVERY gift shop and
souvenier shop in Times Square and the surrounding area, but have yet
to find it online. If nobody can find place by morning, I'll call a
couple that I know of and ask if they can ship it country-wide. Here's
hoping somebody can help you out with that part.

When in doubt, try ebay; none of the three different designs
below sound like skermit's description though, so ...

These have the World Trade Center towers in the background.

Black mugs with in large letters I (heart) NY on one side and
"MORE THAN EVER" on the opposite side.
