{"product_id":"brendles-16oz-pint-glass","title":"Brendle's 16oz Pint Glass","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrendle's began in Elkin, North Carolina, as SW\u0026amp;Y Supply, a wholesale grocery business founded in 1918. By 1953, Douglas D. Brendle was bringing toys and housewares into the company, helping turn its warehouse into a showroom. The first catalog followed in 1957, and the business grew into a familiar regional destination. This pint glass brings that Southern retail story to an everyday moment, recalling a company whose changing shelves reflected decades of local shopping history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrendle's was a chain of catalog showrooms based in Elkin, North Carolina. Its business began in 1918 as SW\u0026amp;Y Supply, a wholesale grocery-distributing company. In 1953, Douglas D. Brendle, the founder's grandson, joined the business and began adding toys and housewares, converting the Elkin warehouse into its first wholesale showroom. The company published its first catalog in 1957. Its showrooms later carried jewelry, toys, sporting goods and electronics. At its peak in 1990, Brendle's operated 58 showrooms across North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia and Tennessee and had 3,000 employees. It filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 1992 and closed six stores. Douglas Brendle retired in 1995. The company filed for Chapter 11 again in April 1996, then reduced its chain to 12 stores and tried to refocus on home goods, crafts and party items while dropping electronics, toys and sporting goods. The strategy did not take hold in time, and Brendle's decided to go out of business in December 1996.\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":54795475124508,"sku":"16216671314746868881","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/8431681945738934001_2048.jpg?v=1793294635","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/brendles-16oz-pint-glass","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
