Iowa 354 1948 (Iowa) (Road Sign) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass showcases a faithful reproduction of the official route marker for Iowa Highway 354, as it appeared in 1948. The design pays homage to the era when standardized road signage was emerging across the United States, prioritizing clarity and ease of navigation for drivers.

The Iconic Shield

At the heart of the design is the distinctive shield shape, the hallmark of Iowa's state highway markers during this period. The shield form itself speaks of protection and guidance, symbolizing the role of the highway in safely leading travelers to their destination.

Color and Typography

The design adheres to the established visual language of the time: a white background provides a clean canvas, upon which stark black text and borders create high contrast for easy readability. The bold, sans-serif font of the number "354" ensures the route designation is instantly recognizable, even from a distance. The simple, utilitarian typography exemplifies the design ethos of functionality over ornamentation.

Historical Significance

The artwork represents a piece of Iowa's transportation history, recalling a time when paved roads were expanding across the state, connecting communities and facilitating trade. The inclusion of the "1948" gives further context to the product and the historical significance of the design.

The overall design reflects a time of standardization and efficiency. The road sign design, now a piece of vintage Americana, acts as a visual representation of the progress and development in Iowa during the mid-20th century.

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.
