klezmerLeslie Buck, Designer of Iconic Coffee Cup, Dies at 87 - Obituary (Obit) - NYTimes.com
Ушёл из жизни человек, придумавший бумажный кофейный стаканчик, ставший символом нью-йоркских deli's и прочих мест, где на ходу можно перехватить кофе.
It was for decades the most enduring piece of ephemera in New York City and is still among the most recognizable. Trim, blue and white, it fits neatly in the hand, sized so its contents can be downed in a New York minute. It is as vivid an emblem of the city as the Statue of Liberty, beloved of property masters who need to evoke Gotham at a glance in films and on television.
Laszlo Büch was born on Sept. 20, 1922, to a Jewish family in Khust, then in Czechoslovakia. (It is today in Ukraine.) His parents were killed by the Nazis during World War II; Laszlo himself survived Auschwitz and Buchenwald.

Update: Забавно, - сегодня мне налили в заведении у метро кофе именно в таком стаканчике.
