50th Anniversary Commemorative Flag of Byrds First Antarctic Expedition Shot Glass 1.5oz

A flat vector commemorative flag marks fifty years since Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd's first flight over the South Pole, set in deep navy with a map of Antarctica and an airplane.

Visual Elements & Composition

Navy blue fills most of the rectangle, with white, orange and light blue used sparingly for the map, the aircraft and the lettering. The Antarctic landmass sits as a clean outline, with the airplane placed as a small emblem of the flight. The text is set in plain capitals: NOVEMBER, 29, 1929-79, BYRD and EXPEDITION. The date and the two years do most of the work, so the layout reads like a formal record.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design honours Byrd's inaugural flight over the South Pole on 29 November 1929. It was adopted in 1979 as a commemorative emblem for the fiftieth anniversary of that flight, and it celebrates the wider legacy of American expeditions to the Antarctic. The airplane points to the rise of aviation, and the map to exploration of the continent, so the two themes sit side by side on one flag.

Carried in the Hand

A shot glass is small and held close, so the flag is read at arm's length, the lettering and the map coming up as the glass is lifted. It suits a toast at the bar or in the cabin, where the emblem is seen up close before the drink is finished.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.

These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.

They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
  • Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
  • Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
  • Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.

Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.

Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.

Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.

When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
