K-29 1948 (Kansas) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design is a Kansas highway sign for route 29, dated 1948, rendered as a bold yellow-and-black marker with a sunburst behind the numerals.

Visual Elements & Composition

The palette is mostly yellow, with black used for the lettering and outlines, and the flat vector finish keeps every edge crisp. A sunburst shape sits behind the route, so the number 29 is the first thing the eye lands on. KANSAS runs across the top, HIGHWAY sits along the bottom, and the year 1948 is set in the same heavy black type. The arrangement is centred and balanced, with the numeral kept large enough to read at a distance.

Meaning & Symbolism

By 1948 Kansas had been numbering its state highways for more than two decades, and route markers like this one were the everyday way travellers kept their bearings across the plains. The sunburst evokes the open sky and the long straight roads of the region, while the route number itself stands for the network of named highways that linked Kansas towns to one another. The date anchors the sign in the postwar years, when car travel was expanding quickly.

Holding a Piece of the Route

A shot glass is small and lifted close, so the sunburst and the numerals are seen up near the eye rather than across a room. The yellow field shows clearly against the clear glass, and the compact layout fits the curve of the vessel without crowding it. It makes a neat piece for a bar shelf, where the route number can be read at each pour.

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.
