{"product_id":"famous-barr-16oz-pint-glass","title":"Famous-Barr 16oz Pint Glass","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRaise a glass to a name woven into St. Louis retail history. Famous-Barr began with Jesse W. Motte’s boot and shoe store in 1874, grew through a clothing business, and took its familiar name after David May joined it with William Barr Dry Goods Co. in 1911. This pint glass brings that regional department-store story to a relaxed drink at home, a gathering with friends, or a collection celebrating the places and names that shaped local commerce.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFamous-Barr grew from Motte's, a St. Louis boot and shoe store founded by Jesse W. Motte in 1874 at 714 Franklin Street. In 1876, supervisor Joseph Specht became Motte's partner; the business added clothing and moved to 703–705 Franklin Street, appearing in the city directory as Famous, Motte \u0026amp; Specht and becoming popularly known as the Famous Clothing Company. Retailer David May acquired the Famous Clothing Store in 1892 and later acquired William Barr Dry Goods Co. In 1911, he merged the businesses to form Famous-Barr. The company opened a downtown St. Louis department store in 1914, described as the country's first air-conditioned department store. Its first branch opened in Clayton, Missouri, in 1948, followed by a Northland Shopping Center branch in Jennings in 1955. Famous-Barr assumed operational control of L.S. Ayres in Indiana in 1991 and added The Jones Store in Kansas City in 1998; both retained their names. Parent May Department Stores was acquired by Federated on August 30, 2005. Famous-Barr joined Macy's Midwest on February 1, 2006, and its name was retired that September as most regional stores adopted the Macy's name. The downtown store and headquarters closed in summer 2013.\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","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"16oz","offer_id":54667448942876,"sku":"42793902613870831967","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/4322095731929928395_2048.jpg?v=1791438755","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/famous-barr-16oz-pint-glass","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
