Illinois 85 (Illinois) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

The artwork on this shot glass pays homage to the historical presence of Illinois Route 85. The design prominently features elements that visually represent an Illinois road sign, specifically highlighting the decommissioned or inventory route.

Visual Elements and Representation

The design likely incorporates the key visual elements associated with Illinois road signage. If intended to reflect the decommissioned route, it might feature a classic state route shield, the design likely uses a color scheme that mimics standard road sign colors, such as a white background and black lettering, if the sign had a similar style. The design's presence on the shot glass would recall a piece of Illinois's past road history.

If depicting an inventory route, the design would feature the special IDOT “inventory route” marker. This would entail a white square background with a green divided circle in the center. The number “85” would be prominent within the central green circle, potentially alongside county information.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design, regardless of the specific type of “Illinois 85” represented, carries a sense of nostalgia. It serves as a visual reminder of the state's transportation history and the evolution of its road network. It may also function as a conversation starter among those familiar with Illinois highways and road signage.

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.
