MN-35 1948 (Minnesota) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

A stark black-and-white state route shield reading MINNESOTA above the number 35, set in a flat, minimal sign panel.

Visual Elements & Composition

White covers most of the design, with black used for the rounded-corner shield and the lettering. The panel is split horizontally, with the state name on one band and the route numeral 35 on the other. The layout is plain and balanced, so the two words carry the whole image. Where the golden-and-black markers in this series lean on a star, this version drops ornament entirely and lets the typography do the work.

Meaning & Symbolism

A state highway shield tells a driver which road they are on, and the design reproduces that function faithfully. The 1948 date in the title sets the mood in the late 1940s, when mid-century road travel was expanding across the Midwest. Naming Minnesota and route 35 together makes the piece a record of one specific state highway rather than a general motif.

Shown on the Glass

On a shot glass the shield is seen close and at an angle as the glass is turned. Its hard black edges and wide white field stay sharp against the curve, so the state name reads cleanly even at the rim.

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.
