GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Raise a glass to a financial-services name that grew from Winston-Salem roots into a familiar presence across the Southeast and beyond. This Wachovia pint glass celebrates the era of green-and-blue branding, Charlotte business history, and memorable merger-era identity. A fitting piece for collectors who appreciate bank memorabilia, corporate history, and stories of American institutions that changed with the times.
Wachovia began in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, on June 16, 1879, as Wachovia National Bank, co-founded by James Alexander Gray and William Lemly. In 1911 it merged with Wachovia Loan and Trust Company, founded in 1893. The bank expanded across the Southeast, acquiring First Atlanta in 1986, South Carolina National Corporation in 1991, Florida institutions in 1997, and Virginia banks in 1998. In 2001, Charlotte-based First Union acquired Wachovia in a stock transaction, but the combined company adopted the Wachovia name and ticker while retaining First Union's corporate structure. The company later acquired SouthTrust in 2004, Golden West Financial in 2006, and A. G. Edwards in 2007. During the 2008 financial crisis, Wells Fargo agreed to acquire Wachovia; the transaction closed December 31, 2008. The Wachovia name was phased into the Wells Fargo brand over three years, with final branch conversions completed October 15, 2011.

A 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.
