Illinois 120 1926 (Illinois) (Road Sign) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass design evokes the spirit of early 20th-century Illinois roadways. The artwork meticulously recreates the likely visual style of a 1926 Illinois Route 120 road sign, based on historical research. The design encapsulates a moment in time when the state's transportation infrastructure was evolving.

Visual Elements & Symbolism

The central element of the design is the numeral "120," rendered in a bold, black font. This is the primary identifier of the route, reflecting its numerical designation. The number is set against a light background, likely white or a pale shade, in keeping with the typical aesthetic of Illinois state route markers of that era. The use of a simple, legible font underscores the utilitarian nature of road signage, intended for clear and immediate recognition.

The inclusion of "ILLINOIS" or "ILL." above or below the route number, as historical evidence suggests, is a deliberate choice. This detail firmly establishes the sign's geographical context, immediately associating the route with the state of Illinois. This element subtly conveys the history and geographic landscape of the time.

The overall design is intentionally straightforward, mirroring the simplicity and directness of early highway signage. It's a snapshot of a bygone era, recalling the early days of automobile travel and the growth of the state's road network, offering a sense of nostalgia for a specific time and place.

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.
