This pint glass celebrates a piece of Iowa's transportation history, featuring the iconic design of the "Iowa 13" road sign from the 1950s. The artwork pays homage to the era when the Iowa State Highway Commission standardized signage across the state, creating a uniform system for clearer navigation.

Visual Elements & Representation

The design faithfully recreates the original road sign's key elements. A prominent circular shape defines the central focus, directly reflecting the standardized design adopted in 1950. At the top, the word "IOWA" is displayed, signifying the state identity, while the number "13" is boldly displayed within the circle, designating the specific highway route.

This design serves as a visual reminder of a pivotal moment in Iowa's road infrastructure. It symbolizes the shift towards a more organized and standardized system of highway marking, making travel easier and more efficient for residents and visitors alike. The classic color scheme, likely mirroring the original sign's colors, enhances the authenticity and visual impact of the design.

It symbolizes the historical evolution of Iowa's road network, embodying the changes that occurred alongside the establishment of the United States Numbered Highway System. By showcasing this design, the pint glass offers a unique opportunity to appreciate and reflect on Iowa's rich transportation heritage.

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.
