Miller Cups. Chicago, Magic, Inc., 1970s. Set of three cups patterned after Ross Bertram’s design, that came to be known as the “Miller” cups. Spun from copper, embellished with brass and tin accents. Very good. This set of cups was hand-decorated by a Moroccan tinsmith at the request of Charles Reynolds, but by accident. Reynolds requested that the tinsmith “duplicate” the Miller Cups. Instead, he “decorated” them. See next lot. Ultimately, this became Reynolds’ favorite set of cups and the one he used most often.
