*FLAW* Vtg 1980s GREAT AMERICA Souvenir CUP Marriott Gurnee IL*FLAW* Vintage 1980s GREAT AMERICA Souvenir CUP Amusement Theme Park Marriott Gurnee IL White Water Rampage Ride Six Flags Original Owner
I seasonally worked at Great America in Gurnee, IL the summers of 1981 - 1986. I can honestly say those were some of the best summers of my life. I was in the Foods Dept. Starting out in the Kiosk division and working my way up to being a manager in first "Penny P Patrick's Praline Parlour" and then at "Captain Morgan's Seafood Restaurant." Fun times!
I was recently cleaning out some of my plastic memory totes which have been tucked away for years. One of the things I came across was this plastic souvenir cup.
NOTE:
It did not survive all of these decades intact. It has a
FLAW
. There is an approximate
1" crack in the plastic
under the word "Rampage" on the cup (see photo).
It is NO longer "watertight"
so is
not suitable to be used as a drinking cup
.
You're looking at a
PLASTIC SOUVENIR CUP
According to my measurements, it's approximately 6 3/4" tall.
White background. Has the words Marriott's Great America on it along with a print of the Carousel, Log flume ride and the "Edge". The other side says White Water Rampage.
It's been packed away for a few decades and is in overall good clean vintage condition other than the unfortunate
crack
. There are also initials (mine) printed on the bottom.
A fun piece of vintage amusement park memorabilia for a collector or fan.
We are a SMOKE-FREE and PET-FREE household & all clothing is washed in allergen-free detergent. I continue to list additional items when I find the time.
Before listing an item, I carefully check it over & to the best of my ability, try to describe it as accurately as possible.
See my other listings
for more great items!
PayPal payment is required within 3 days of invoice receipt on auction listings. At this point, due to too many people clicking "Buy It Now" & then never actually paying for the item, my fixed price listings require immediate payment. ***International buyers MUST pay via PayPal only.
PLEASE NOTE that I'm happy to combine shipping on multiple items purchased at the same time by the same buyer but in order to do this, you MUST contact me (with your zip code/postal code so that I can calculate an accurate shipping price) PRIOR to paying so that I can send you a combined invoice. Thanks!
Barring any crazy weather/hazardous driving situation, I ship as quickly as possible after receipt of cleared payment.
**I gladly welcome international customers but please be advised that any and all Customs/Duty fees that may incur with the import of items you purchase from me are the responsibility of you, the Buyer. I do reserve the right to cancel bids/refund payments from buyers in countries to which I cannot ship a particular item due to your nation's import restrictions.
Please base your Feedback/Star Rating of me on things that are within my control. I respectfully ask you to realize that while I get your item packaged & off to the Post Office as quickly as humanly possible, I obviously do NOT have any control of how they handle it from there. After I drop it off at the Post Office, the transit time is in the hands of the trusty Postal Service. They're generally quite efficient but do encounter some delays at times.
Postal rates keep increasing (obviously out of my control) & I carefully weigh the items prior to listing so that there are no surprises when it comes to shipping costs. I do include a very nominal charge to cover my packaging/printing materials. While I realize that you are looking for bargains, I too need to be able to cover my expenses.
