MN-18 1948 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Pint Glass Design

This pint glass design pays homage to a classic piece of Minnesota highway history: the 1948 MN-18 road sign. The artwork replicates the iconic style used by the Minnesota Department of Highways during the late 1940s, a design that evokes a strong sense of nostalgia for a bygone era of road travel.

Artwork Details

The central design element is a crisp white silhouette of the state of Minnesota, meticulously rendered to capture the familiar shape. This state outline is placed against a solid black square background, mirroring the original sign's appearance. Above the state's shape, the word "MINNESOTA" is elegantly arched across the top in a period-accurate, small black block font.

At the heart of the design, within the white state outline, the route number "18" is boldly displayed in a central and prominent fashion. The number is rendered in a clean, black font that echoes the original sign's aesthetic. This clearly designates the highway.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design speaks to the history of Minnesota's transportation infrastructure and the significance of Highway 18 as a connector across central Minnesota. The Minnesota outline itself serves as a symbol of the state, instantly recognizable and evoking a sense of place. The highway number "18" signifies a specific route, a conduit that once linked communities and fostered travel.

Overall, the design represents the essence of a classic road sign and the pride of Minnesota.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
