NC 342 1945 (North Carolina) Pint Glass - Design

This pint glass showcases a classic piece of North Carolina highway history: the NC 342 route marker as it would have appeared in the mid-1940s. The design pays homage to the distinctive visual language of North Carolina's state highway system.

Artwork Details

The design features a white diamond shape centered on a black square background. Within the white diamond, the number "342" is prominently displayed, signifying North Carolina Highway 342. This straightforward arrangement is typical of the era, conveying essential information with bold clarity.

The "NC" monogram may or may not be above the route number, in line with the classic design from this era. If present, the interlocking "N" and "C" further reinforce the state's identity.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design represents a specific point in time and the state's infrastructure. It celebrates the simplicity and functionality of mid-century road signage, reflecting an era of postwar growth and development in North Carolina. The graphic is instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with the state's highways, invoking a sense of nostalgia and connection to a tangible past.

The route marker is more than just a number; it's a visual cue, a prompt to interpret a highway's specific course and destination within the state, as well as a connection to the primary highway system.

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.
