Petersburg, Va. The First Federal Wagon Train Entering The Town (U.S. Civil War) Pint Glass 16oz

A black-and-white glass-plate photograph follows a line of covered supply wagons as the first Federal train rolls into Petersburg, Virginia.

Visual Elements & Composition

Greys dominate the rectangular frame, with black accents in the wagon canvases and the road. A dirt road recedes toward a church steeple in the town, and the eye is drawn down that line of perspective. Bare winter trees stand on either side, and small figures move along the road beside the convoy. A numeral, 951, is visible on the image.

Meaning & Symbolism

Petersburg was a transportation hub south of Richmond, and Union forces pushed to cut its supply lines to the Confederate capital. The covered wagons carried food, ammunition and medical supplies to sustain an army in occupied territory. The picture stands for the logistics behind the front lines, and for the campaign that led to the Siege of Petersburg in 1864 and 1865.

Traced Along the Edge

A pint glass is tall and curved, so a long road running into the distance suits its shape. As the glass is turned, the convoy seems to roll along its surface toward the steeple, much like the wagons moving toward the town.

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.
