Iowa 108 1926 Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a meticulously rendered design based on the original 1926 Iowa Highway 108 road sign, a piece of American transportation history. The artwork pays homage to the early days of standardized highway signage.

Visual Elements and Representation

The core of the design is the iconic circular shield, a symbol of identification and direction in the 1920s. Within this shield, the inscription immediately identifies the subject: "IOWA" arches elegantly across the top, marking the geographic origin, while the number "108" boldly asserts the specific route designation.

The color scheme replicates the classic visual language of the era: black text against a crisp, white background. This stark contrast ensured maximum legibility, crucial for drivers navigating the evolving road network. The minimalist design is a potent symbol of clarity and the nascent organization of America's highways.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents a vital chapter in the evolution of long-distance travel in the United States. It symbolizes the standardization of road systems, connecting communities and paving the way for easier mobility. The Iowa 108 sign design is a tangible link to a pivotal moment in American history, marking the era when the nation truly began to interconnect.

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.
