NC 10A 1945 (North Carolina) Pint Glass - Design

This pint glass celebrates a piece of North Carolina's transportation history, featuring the design of a vintage NC 10A road sign from 1945. The artwork evokes a sense of nostalgia, transporting you back to an era when state highways were evolving and shaping the landscape of travel.

Sign Elements & Meaning

The design faithfully replicates the likely appearance of the 1945 NC 10A road sign. The design uses the clean, straightforward aesthetics of the time: two simple lines of text. At the top, the letters "NC" proudly represent "North Carolina," indicating the sign's connection to the state's highway system. Below, "10A" denotes the specific route – an alternate path to the primary NC 10 highway. The "A" signifies an alternate route or variation, perhaps a more scenic or direct pathway.

The simplicity of the design, with its use of a clean white or light background and black lettering, mirrors the functional yet classic approach to signage in the mid-20th century. The presentation is a direct, uncluttered statement, focused solely on the critical information for travelers.

A Journey Through Time

The artwork encapsulates a moment in time, a snapshot of the infrastructure and growth of North Carolina during the mid-1940s. The sign signifies more than just a route; it represents the expansion of the highway system and the evolving mobility of the period. Owning this glass is like holding a visual echo of that historical era, reminding us of a time when the open road held new adventures for everyone.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” 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 / β‰ˆ0.47 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 β€” 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.
