MN-18 1920 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

This design is a flat, graphic road-sign marker built around the route number 18, with the year 1920 and the name Minnesota set beside it as a record of place and time.

Visual Elements & Composition

Golden yellow and black make up nearly the whole palette, with yellow taking the larger share. The centrepiece is a five-pointed star set inside a black circular badge, and the route number 18 sits within that star. Square framing with a double border surrounds the badge, so the marker reads as a shield-like emblem that stays clear at small size. The shapes are bold and simple, which suits a glass where the image is seen in a single glance.

Meaning & Symbolism

Route markers like this one were how drivers navigated the state highway network, and the star-in-circle form signals a numbered route rather than a local road. The 1920 date anchors the piece to the early years of the American highway system, when routes were first numbered and given their own signs. Minnesota gives the design its regional identity, so the marker stands for both the road and the state it crossed.

Where This Glass Meets the Design

On a 1.5oz shot glass the emblem sits in close view, held in the hand at the rim and read from above as the glass is raised. The circular badge suits the round body of the glass, and the yellow and black stand out clearly against the clear walls. It is a small, collectible piece of roadside history for anyone who has traced a route across the state.

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.
