Product details
The No Guts No Glory Drexel Burnham Turtle Mug brings back a piece of Wall Street history: a black coffee mug with No guts, no glory. in gold serif letters, an engraved turtle stretching its neck out of its shell, and the Drexel Burnham name below. It nods to the firm best known for its high-yield junk bond deals.

How It Happened
- 1935 – Burnham & Company is founded.
- 1973 – it merges with Drexel Firestone to form Drexel Burnham and Company.
- 1976 – a merger with William D. Witter brings the Drexel Burnham Lambert name.
- February 13, 1990 – the firm files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
- Early 1990s – mugs carrying the No Guts, No Glory slogan turn up at its bankruptcy auction.
The turtle echoes an old saying traced back to at least 1946: a turtle only makes progress when it sticks its neck out. At its core, the mug is a desk-side reminder that no deal, idea or career moves forward without a little risk.
