Illinois 31 1950 (Illinois) Pint Glass - Design Description

This pint glass celebrates the classic aesthetic of mid-20th-century Illinois highway signage. The design directly references the historic “Illinois 31” road sign, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era of American road travel.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The central focus is the number "31," boldly displayed, likely in a classic sans-serif font reminiscent of the period. This number, emblazoned on the glass, immediately identifies the iconic Illinois Route 31.

The design clearly incorporates the word "ILLINOIS" at the top, likely in uppercase, further cementing the association with the state's highway system. The graphic style aims to replicate the era’s design standards, using flat colors and bold, clear lettering to ensure readability at a distance.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents a journey through the heart of Illinois, capturing the spirit of exploration and adventure that defined early automobile travel. It symbolizes the state's infrastructure and the simple, clean aesthetics of mid-century design.

The inclusion of the "1950" evokes a specific time in history and the evolution of the American highway system. The imagery is intended to resonate with collectors, history buffs, and anyone who appreciates the enduring appeal of vintage Americana.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 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 — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — 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 / ≈0.47 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 — 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.
