Vintage 'War Between the States' Tumbler Glass with General Jeb Stuart & Le Mat Pistols

This is a vintage clear glass tumbler, part of what is described as a set of six. The glass features a conical or inverted-trapezoid shape, wider at the rim and tapering towards a solid, weighted base. The material is transparent soda-lime glass, commonly used for drinkware. It is decorated with black screen-printed graphics and text. Prominently displayed are the words 'WAR BETWEEN THE STATES' (partially visible, inverted), '1861 * 1865', and an image of General J.E.B. Stuart, a Confederate States Army commander. Below these elements, there is an illustration of two crossed 'LE MAT PERCUSSION PISTOL' firearms, with the pistols' designation printed underneath. The graphics appear to be in good condition with no significant visible chipping, fading, or scratching that would compromise the legibility or integrity of the design. The glass itself shows no obvious chips, cracks, or significant scuffs, maintaining its clarity and presumed original luster. Based on the subject matter and common manufacturing practices for commemorative glassware, it likely dates from the mid to late 20th century, possibly from the centennial observances of the Civil War (1961-1965) or later as a general historical novelty item. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for mass-produced commemorative glassware, with the screen-printing being clear and evenly applied.
