Illinois 89C 1926 Shot Glass: A Nostalgic Design

This shot glass features a design that evokes the golden age of American road travel. The artwork replicates the style of a vintage Illinois highway sign, specifically referencing "Illinois 89C" as it might have appeared in 1926.

Historical Inspiration

The design draws inspiration from the early days of the U.S. Numbered Highway System and state-specific route designations. The "1926" indicates the sign's intended period, capturing the look and feel of those early road signs. The shield shape and the clean, bold lettering are reminiscent of the era's utilitarian yet iconic aesthetic.

Meaning and Symbolism

The "89C" signifies a specific branch, alternate, or spur of the main Route 89 in Illinois. These auxiliary routes often represented shorter paths or alternatives to the primary roadways. The design symbolizes a bygone era of exploration and the open road, when motoring was still a relatively new and exciting experience. It celebrates the history of Illinois's roadways.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
