Berlin (Now Brunswick), Md. Pontoon Bridge And Ruins Of The Stone Bridge Across The Potomac (Destroyed In 1861) (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

A 19th-century stereograph shows a mounted rider wading a dark horse through shallow water at Berlin, Maryland, with the ruins of a stone bridge and a pontoon crossing on the Potomac.

Visual Elements & Composition

Pale grey and mid grey make up the water and the sky, with charcoal and black giving weight to the horse, the rider and the shadows. The image is two circular views set side by side in a rectangular frame, so the same crossing is seen in a pair. The rider sits near the centre of the frame, with a second horse and rider on a causeway in the distance. A horse is reflected in a pool at the front, and a tall bare pole stands at the left edge.

Meaning & Symbolism

The stone bridge across the Potomac was destroyed in 1861, and the pontoon bridge that replaced it at Berlin, now Brunswick, marks the crossing once it was gone. The photograph records a river that had to be crossed by temporary means. Riders moving through the shallows show how the army depended on fords and floating bridges to move men and horses across the Potomac during the war.

On the Mixing Glass

A mixing glass is held close and turned in the hand, so the paired views are read at arm's length, the way a stereo card is held to the eyes. The clear sides let the causeway and the wading horse show through the drink.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
