Coaster with cartoon of a man diving into a mojito glass
Object/Artifact
Round coaster printed in red on a cream ground.

No text, signature, or brand. The board is lightly speckled/foxed. Two coasters.
2025.1.301
A humorous beer-themed barware coaster. It shares the red-line drawing style, round pulpboard stock, and format of the companion coasters in the collection (the "MUA" beer-kisser, the tipsy serenade, the marlin-fisherman "Cuba"), marking it as part of the same humorous series; this example carries no text. The piece belongs to bar/hospitality and popular-humor material culture.
