K-16 1926 (Kansas) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A yellow highway marker sets KANSAS and HIGHWAY around the numeral 16, with a sunburst and a square backing giving the route number its bold, retro presence.

Visual Elements & Composition

Yellow dominates the artwork, with black used for the lettering and outlines. The numeral 16 is the largest element, placed at the centre over a sunburst, while KANSAS and HIGHWAY run as text lines above and below it. A circle and a square background frame the layout, which is symmetrical and orderly. The forms are flat and crisp, and the high contrast between the yellow and the black keeps all three text elements legible.

Meaning & Symbolism

The sign is a route marker in the style of the state's early highway shields, a numbered badge that tells travellers which road they are on. The number 16 identifies the route, and KANSAS and HIGHWAY name the state and the road type. The year 1926 in the design's name refers to the period when Kansas first introduced its numbered highway system, and the sunburst and square framing echo the bold graphics of that early road signage.

On the Shot Glass

A shot glass is small and held close, so the marker is seen from just a few centimetres away as the glass is raised to eye level. The short, straight-sided form keeps the numeral centred in one view, and the sunburst behind it stands out as the glass is turned in the hand. It is a compact way to carry a piece of early highway graphics, and the lettering reads clearly at close range.

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.
