Becker 16oz Pint Glass","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBring a piece of Chicago financial history to your next pour. A. G. Becker grew from the commercial paper trade of the 1880s into a leading dealer and investment bank, beginning with Abraham G. Becker’s 1893 effort to rebuild a troubled business. Its first underwriting followed in 1911, and its reach later extended across major U.S. cities. This pint glass celebrates a firm whose changing story links local enterprise with the expanding world of securities and international finance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA. G. Becker \u0026amp; Co. was a Chicago investment bank whose roots reach back to the 1880s commercial paper trade. In 1893, Abraham G. Becker took control of Herbert Schaffner \u0026amp; Co., a Chicago commercial paper business that had failed during the Panic of 1893, and established his own firm with $50,000 from a life insurance policy. By 1904, he had repaid the losses suffered by the former customers. The firm became a leading U.S. commercial paper dealer, then expanded into stock and bond brokerage and underwriting. Its first underwriting, for Hart Schaffner \u0026amp; Marx, was completed in 1911. By 1919, it had offices in New York City, St. Louis, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Portland and Seattle. In 1974, Becker joined a U.S. venture with London-based S.G. Warburg and Paris-based Paribas, operating as A.G. Becker-Warburg Paribas Becker. After Warburg's interest was bought out in 1983, the firm became A.G. Becker Paribas. Paribas took full control in 1984 and sold Becker's correspondent business to Pershing LLC that May. In August, Merrill Lynch acquired the remaining investment banking and securities businesses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eA sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- 16 oz (0.473 L) capacity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Tempered, durable glass construction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- BPA-free material\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Hand wash only to preserve finish\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Assembled in the USA from globally sourced parts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Hand wash only\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEU representative\u003c\/strong\u003e: HONSON VENTURES LIMITED, gpsr@honsonventures.com, 3, Gnaftis House flat 102, Limassol, Mesa Geitonia, 4003, CY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e: Generic brand, two year warranty in the EU and Northern Ireland\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand wash only\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"16oz","offer_id":54749881729308,"sku":"55727088374493586655","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/16960296037279532517_2048.jpg?v=1792644091","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/a-g-becker-16oz-pint-glass","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
