Iowa 46 1926 Shot Glass Design

This shot glass features a design that evokes the spirit of early 20th-century American road travel. The artwork replicates the iconic "Iowa 46" road sign, a visual symbol of Iowa's state highway system as it was implemented in 1926.

Road Sign Representation

The design faithfully recreates the classic circular route marker adopted by Iowa in 1926. This circular shield shape was chosen for its distinctiveness and ease of recognition along the roads of Iowa. The high-contrast black and white color scheme, a standard for legibility, ensures the design’s visual impact. The inclusion of the route number "46" within this shield indicates a specific primary road within the state’s network.

Symbolism and Meaning

The "Iowa" inscription at the top immediately links the design to the state of Iowa. Below it, the prominence of the number "46" speaks to a specific route, inviting reflection upon the era of road trips and exploration. This design captures the optimism and modernization that characterized the early decades of the automobile age. The sign’s presence on a shot glass is a subtle nod to the journey, inviting a moment of reflection and a toast to a time when the open road and new possibilities were embraced.

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.
