K-35 1948 (Kansas) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design reproduces a Kansas highway marker for route 35 from 1948, a golden yellow and black badge built around a starburst.

Visual Elements & Composition

Golden yellow dominates the field, with black used for the lettering, the route number and the edges of the badge. The starburst forms the outer shape, and a rounded square sits within it to frame the numerals. The number 35 is the largest mark, placed centrally so it reads first, with KANSAS and HIGHWAY set in smaller black capitals above and below. The flat vector finish keeps the outlines sharp and the composition uncluttered.

Meaning & Symbolism

The marker belongs to Kansas's early numbered state highway network, which the state began building in the 1920s and continued to mark through the postwar years. Route 35 ran through the eastern part of the state, connecting local roads to the wider network, and was later renumbered to avoid confusion with the Interstate 35 designation. The shield shape stood for state authority over the road and gave travellers a consistent way to navigate across Kansas before national sign standards took hold.

Holding a Piece of the Route

A shot glass is small and held close, so the starburst and the big black numerals are read directly in the hand. The golden yellow glows against the clear glass, and the compact badge fits the curve of the vessel without crowding it. It is a neat way to keep a piece of mid-century Kansas road history on a home bar.

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.
