My friend Buck has a Magic Shop nearby and would like to identify three sets of cups he has for sale on consignment.
Please let me know if you anything about them that will help him out. One set is a four cup combo set with a JP logo inside: One set is PF style, heavy copper with silver/nickle plating: Third set is thinner copper traditional style: Thanks for any help. J.Manuel
Nothing would get done at all, if man waited so long that no one could find fault with it.

The 2nd set reminds me of the pewter cups of Mark Burger/House of Magic.
My ex-cat was named "Muffin". "Vomit" would be a better name for her. AKA "The Evil Ball of Fur".

Maybe Buma pewter/gold inside and rings. Thanks Francis.
The traditionals are about 2.5" inside mouth and height, and thinner metal than other recent trads.

Harries perhaps?

I agree - definitely Buma cups: pewter with gold beads
I think the copper trads are probably Tannen's
I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. Elayne Boosler

I think the cups in the third picture are also Buma's.If so, they are either silver-plated or pewter. The ones with gold rings (picture 4th & 5th) is a different set.

Sorry guys,
I was told the cups in the third, fourth and fifth ARE the same cups! I must be old, couldn't see the golden rims in the picture. Another reason for my mistake is that Buma did have similar cups without the golden rim in silver-plated and pewter. Francis

If the third set (copper) will accept a tennis ball, they are either Tannen's Stubby Cups or Golden's Magic Wand cups The Tannen's cups are about 4 1/2 ounces each. The Golden's Magic Wand cups are a bit lighter.
