Michigan Snowmobile Mugs
Description: Poloron Products was based in New Rochelle, New York, and produced a wide range of products from lawn ornaments and camping equipment to snow blowers and lawnmowers. In 1970, Poloron decided to get into snowmobiles and brought two models to market - the 295cc Cyclone and 299cc Tornado. Manufactured at their Michigan City, Indiana lawnmower factory, Poloron differentiated themselves as an American-made snowmobile manufacturer, putting them in the minority among their contemporaries, though while they made some nice machines, they were terrible at marketing. While the competition was taking photos in the mountains, Poloron used fake winter sets in the studio that looked incredibly cheesy. Needless to say, they never quite caught on.
