Illinois 100 1950 Pint Glass Design

This pint glass celebrates the history of Illinois Route 100 with a design inspired by the classic road signs of the 1950s. The artwork directly mirrors the iconic style of the era's state highway shields, evoking a sense of mid-century Americana and the open road.

Visual Elements

The design features the familiar elements of a 1950s Illinois highway sign. A prominent white square shield forms the core of the design, framed by a bold black border. Positioned at the top of the shield is the word "ILLINOIS," boldly displayed in a classic, block-style font that was common for road signage of the time.

Centered directly beneath "ILLINOIS" is the route number "100," also rendered in a block font that is consistent with the overall aesthetic. The simplicity and clarity of the design are characteristic of the utilitarian approach to signage during the 1950s.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design symbolizes the historic Illinois Route 100, a scenic byway connecting the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers. It also pays tribute to the era of travel and exploration of the mid-20th century, when road trips were a popular pastime. The design acts as a nostalgic nod to simpler times, the evolution of highway infrastructure, and the allure of travel along the Great River Road.

Clear 16 oz (β‰ˆ0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel β€” durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside β€” color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / β‰ˆ0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters β€” handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
