Iowa 14 1926 (Iowa) (Road Sign) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass design celebrates a piece of Iowa's rich road history, emulating the iconic 1926 Iowa Highway 14 route marker. The design cleverly replicates the official sign, instantly recognizable to road enthusiasts and history buffs alike.

The Artwork: A Blast from the Past

The artwork faithfully recreates the original circular sign design. At the top, in a bold, capitalized font, arches the word "IOWA," the state proudly claiming its highway. The centerpiece is the number "14," prominently displayed, its boldness signifying the importance of the route in its era. The arrangement is simple and direct, conveying vital information for travelers in a clear, concise manner.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents a pivotal moment in Iowa's transportation history. The 1926 signs marked a transition from informal markings to standardized route markers, a crucial step toward a more organized and accessible road network. The "14" itself symbolizes a vital north-south corridor, connecting communities and facilitating travel across the state. This shot glass design thus serves as a tangible link to the past, evoking the spirit of early road travel and the evolution of American highways. It’s a testament to the past.

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.
